Q8 / 90 · JEE Main 2014 (19 Apr Online) · Chemistry

The final product formed when methylamine is treated with ${NaNO}_{2}$ and $HCl$ followed by hydrolysis is:

A
Nitromethane
B
Methylcyanide
Correct answer
C
Methyl alcohol
D
Diazomethane

Solution

{CH}_{3} {NH}_{2} ⟶_{HCl}^{{NaNO}_{2}} {CH}_{3} N_{2}^{+} {Cl}^{-} \overset{H_{2} O}{⟶} \underset{Methyl alcohol}{{CH}_{3} OH}

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'C'.
