The compound X (C_(4)H_(11)N) on treatement with nitrous acid gives a tertiary alcohol (C_(4)H_(10)O). The compound X must also respond to

Answer»

Mustard oil reaction
Libermann nitroso reaction
Beckmann rearrangement
Carbylamine reaction.

Solution :X must be `1^(@)` AMINE as it PRODUCES alcohol by reaction with `HNO_(2)`. The probable structure of X is TERTIARY butyl amine
`{:(""CH_(3)""CH_(3)),("|""|"),(CH_(3)-C-NH_(2) overset(HNO_(2))(rarr) CH_(3)-C-OH),("|""|"),(""CH_(3)""CH_(3)),(" "(X) 1^(@)" Amine"3^(@)" Alcohol"):}`
X being `1^(@)` amine should also RESPOND to mustard oil reaction and carbyl amine reaction.
