Q13 / 90 · JEE Main 2021 (17 Mar Shift 1) · Chemistry

Which of the following reaction is an example of ammonolysis?

  • A
    C6H5COCl+C6H5NH2⟶C6H5CONHC6H5
  • B
    C6H5CH2CN⟶[H]C6H5CH2CH2NH2
  • C
    C6H5NH2⟶HClC6H5NH3Cl-
  • Correct answer
    D
    C6H5CH2Cl+NH3⟶C6H5CH2NH2

Solution

The process of cleavage of the C-X bond by Ammonia molecule is known as ammonolysis.

Ex: R-CH2-Cl+N¨H3⟶R-CH2-NH2

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