A compound A of molecular formula C_(3)H_(7)O_(2)N on reaction with Fe and cone. HCl gives a compound B of molecular formula C_(3)H_(9)N. Compound B on treatment with NaNO_(2) HCl gives another compound C of molecular formula C_(3)H_(8)O. The compound C has molecular formula C_(3)H_(8)O. The compound C gives effervescence with Na. On oxidation with CrO_(3), the compound C gives a saturated aldehyde containing three carbon atoms. Deduce the structures of A,B and C and write the equations for the reaction involved.

A compound A of molecular formula C_(3)H_(7)O_(2)N on reaction with Fe

1.	A compound A of molecular formula C_(3)H_(7)O_(2)N on reaction with Fe and cone. HCl gives a compound B of molecular formula C_(3)H_(9)N. Compound B on treatment with NaNO_(2) HCl gives another compound C of molecular formula C_(3)H_(8)O. The compound C has molecular formula C_(3)H_(8)O. The compound C gives effervescence with Na. On oxidation with CrO_(3), the compound C gives a saturated aldehyde containing three carbon atoms. Deduce the structures of A,B and C and write the equations for the reaction involved.
Answer» Solution :`UNDERSET("1-Nitropropane"(A))(CH_(3)CH_(2)CH_(2)NO_(2))underset(HCl)overset(FE)(to) underset(1-"Propanamine"(B))(CH_(3)CH_(2)CH_(2)NH_(2))underset(HCl)overset(NaNO_(2))(to) underset("Propan-1-ol"(C))(CH_(3)CH_(2)CH_(2)OH)underset("Sodium propoxide")(CH_(3)CH_(2)CH_(2)ONa)+H_(2)` `underset(1-"PROPANOL"(C))(CH_(3)CH_(2)CH_(2)OH)overset(CrO_(3))(to) underset("PROPANAL")(CH(3)CH_(3)CHO)`
