MCQ
Gabriel synthesis is used for the preparation of:
- AQuaternary salt
- ✓Primary amines
- CTertiary amine
- DSecondary amine
✓
Answer
Correct option: B.
Primary amines
(b) Primary amines
Explanation: In Gabriel Phthalimide reaction, the sodium or potassium salt of phthalimide is N-alkylated with a primary alkyl halide to give the corresponding N-alkylphthalimideis for producing primary amines. This is because of the reaction of sodium or potassium salt of phthalimide with alkyl halide impure SN2 reaction
