Concept Introduction:
The reagents such as methyl iodide and silver oxide are given and used as the reaction conditions in the given reactions. This reaction is called Hofmann elimination. The
To find: The major product in the reaction (a) via Hofmann elimination
Identify all α- and β-positions in the starting material of the reaction (a)
(b)
Interpretation: Major products for the given set of reactions have to be found.
Concept Introduction: The general formula for primary amine is −NH2. There are several methods available to prepare primary amines. Among them, Gabriel synthesis plays a very important role for preparing it. In this method, secondary and tertiary amines are not formed as side products. It involves in three steps.
Formation of potassium phthalimide (deprotonation)
Potassium phthalimide in alkaline KOH acts as the reagent which has negatively charged phthalimide. It is formed by the reaction between phthalimide and potassium hydroxide.
Formation of R−N bond by SN2 nucleophilic substitution
The negative charged nitrogen atom in phthalimide can easily attract the positive side of R−X. In primary
Formation of primary amine by hydrolysis
The resultant product further goes for hydrolysis using hydrazine as the reagent. This reaction also follows nucleophilic substitution reaction. Finally, primary amine is formed with a side product of hydrazine derivative.
To find: Using a Gabriel synthesis, prepare the major product of (b)

(c)
Interpretation: Major products for the given set of reactions have to be found.
Concept Introduction:
When sodium cyanide is reacted with alkyl halide, SN2 nucleophilic reaction of cyanide on alkyl group occurs. So, cyanide is introduced into alkyl group. By adding water to alkyl cyanide, cyanide is converted into
