How will you convert : (i) Ethanoic acid into methanamine (ii) Hexane nitrile into 1-aminopentane (iii) Methanol into ethanoic acid (iv) Ethanamine into methanamine

Answer»

Solution :(i) `UNDERSET("ETHANOIC acid")(CH_(3)COOH)+ underset ("Hydrazoic acid")(HN_(3)) overset("Conc."H_(2)SO_(4)) underset("heat") to underset ("Methylamine")(CH_(3)NH_(2))+N_(2)+CO_(2)`
(ii)`underset ("Heance nitrile")(CH_(3)(CH_(2))_(4)CN) overset("Conc.HCI")underset("partial hydrolysis")to CH_(3)(CH_(2))_(4)CONH_(2) overset(Br_(2)//KOH)to underset("1-Aminopetane")CH_(3)(CH_(2))_(4)NH_(2)`
(iii)`underset("Methanol")(CH_(3)OH)overset(SOCI_(2))to (CH_(3)CI) overset("KCN(alc)")to CH_(3)CNoverset(H^(+)//H_(2)O)to underset("Ethanoic acid")(CH_(3)COOH)`
(iv)`underset("Ethanamine")(CH_(3)CH_(2)NH_(2)) overset(HNO_(3))underset(NaNO_(2)+ HCI) to CH_(3)CH_(2)OH overset(KMnO_(4)//H^(+))toCH_(3)COOH overset(NH_(4)OH)toCH_(3)COONH_(4) overset("heat")to CH_(3)COONH_(2) overset(Br_(2)//KOH) to CH_(3)NH_(2)`.
