Question
Two isomeric compounds $(A$ and $B)$ have $\ce{ C_4H_{11}N}$ molecular formula react with $\ce{HNO_2}$ and forms compounds $(C)$ and $(D). C$  is hardly oxidised but it reacts immediately with Lucas reagent whereas $D$ reacts with Lucas reagent in $5$ minutes and it also gives haloform reaction. Identify $\ce{A, B, C}$ and $\ce{D}$.

Answer

Image
$A$ and $B$ are primary amines, which react $\ce{HNO_2}$ and forms corresponding alcohols, $C$ is a tertiary alcohol which is hardly oxidised and it reacts immediately with Lucas reagent and $D$ is a secondary alcohols,
hence it reacts with Lucas reagent in $5$ minutes and due toImagegroup it gives haloform reaction.
