An organic amino compound reacts with aqueous nitrous acid at low temperature to produce an oily nitroso amine. The compound is
CH3NH2
CH3CH2NH2
CH3CH2NHCH2CH3
(CH3CH2)3N
C.
CH3CH2NHCH2CH3
Organic compound + HNO2 oily nitrosoamine
Hence, the organic compound is a secondary amine and therefore, the compound is CH3CH2NHCH2CH3 .
The property which distinguishes formic acid from acetic acid is
only ammonium salt of formic acid on heating gives amide
when heated with alcohol/ H2SO4 only acetic acid forms ester
only acetic acid forms salts with alkali
only formic acid reduces Fehling's solution
P-cresol reacts with chloroform in alkaline medium to give the compound A which adds hydrogen cyanide to form the compound B. The latter on acidic hydrolysis gives chiral carboxylic acid. The structure of the carboxylic acid is
