Secondary amines when treated with nitrous acid give yellow oily substance. So, amine 'A' is methylphenyl amine. Reaction of nitrous acid with aliphatic amines,

Liberation of N2 gas + alcohol formation

R-NH2 + HNO2 → R-N+≡NCl- H2O ROH + N2 + HCl

Reaction of nitrous acid with aromatic amines

Liberation of N2 gas + Phenol formation

PhNH2 + HNO2 + HCl 273 -278 K Ph-N≡NCl- → PhOH + HCl + N2

Reaction of nitrous acid with 2° amines: With HNO2, they give nitroso amines, which being insoluble in dilute acids separate as yellow oily compound.

R2NH + HONO → R2-N-N=O

N-nitroso dialkyl amine (yellow oil)

Reaction of nitrous acid with 3° amines : Aliphatic 3° amines on reaction with HONO formsoluble nitrite salts, while aromatic 3° amines form green coloured p -nitroso amines.
