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 toA. Mustard oil reactionB. Libermann nitroso reactionC. Beckmann rearrangementD. Carbylamine reaction.

Answer» Correct Answer - A::D
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"):}`
