Compound A (molecular formula C_(3)H_(8)O) is trated with acidified potassium dichromate to form a product B (molecular formula C_(3)H_(6)O). B form a shining silver mirror on warming with ammonical silver nitrate. B when treted with an aqueous solution of H_(2)NCONHNH_(2).HCl and sodium acetate gives a productC. Identify the structure of C

Answer»

`CH_(3)CH_(2)CH = NNNHCONH_(2)`
`CH_(3)-underset(CH_(3))underset(|)(C ) = NNHCONH_(2)`
`C_(3)H_(4)O`
`C_(4)H_(8)O`

Solution :`underset((A))(C_(3)H_(8)O )overset(K_(2)Cr_(2)O_(7)H^(+))rarrunderset((B))(C_(3)H_(6)O)overset(" AMM" AgNO_(3))rarr " Silver mirror" overset(H_(2)NCONHNH_(2)HCl)rarr C`
Reaction of (B) INDICATES that it is an aldehyde which thus should be `C_(2)H_(5)CHO` or `CH_(3)CH_(2)CHO` hence C shouldbe `CH_(3)CH_(2)CH = "NNHCONH"_(2)`
