(d)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: Using cyclohexanone as the starting material, the given compound has to be synthesized.

Concept Introduction:

Imine formation:

Aldehyde or ketone reacts with a primary amine and forms imine in mildly acidic conditions.

Example for the formation of imine is shown here:

  • Imines contain C=N .
  • Imines are also called as Schiff bases, named after Hugo Schiff who described their formation.

Reduction of imine:

Imine when undergoes hydrogenation reaction, it gets converted into amine.
