Answer»

The correct choice is (a) Zinc and acid

The best EXPLANATION: This PROCESS is technically most feasible for the preparation of those amines which are insoluble at a pH lower than 5.0, so that the amine may be SEPARATED from DISSOLVED zinc salts without resorting to a very elaborate isolation scheme such as extraction with organic solvents.
