MCQ
Which of the following statement is true?
  • A
    Trimethyl amine forms a soluble compound with Hinsberg reagent and $KOH$.
  • B
    Dimethyl amine reacts with $KOH$ and phenol to form an azo dye
  • Methyl amine reacts with nitrous acid and liberates $N_2$ from aq. solution
  • D
    None of these

Answer

Correct option: C.
Methyl amine reacts with nitrous acid and liberates $N_2$ from aq. solution
c
Among the given  statement only $(c)$ is true. As methyl amine liberates $N_2$ on reaction with nitrous acid.

$C{{H}_{3}}-N{{H}_{2}}+2HONO\,\to C{{H}_{3}}-ONO+{{N}_{2}}+2{{H}_{2}}O$

while dimethylamine and trimethyl amine form insoluble compound with hinsberg reagent and $KOH$.

${{R}_{2}}NH\,+\,{{C}_{6}}{{H}_{5}}S{{O}_{2}}Cl\,\xrightarrow{O{{H}^{-}}}$ ${{C}_{6}}{{H}_{5}}S{{O}_{2}}N{{R}_{2}}$

${{R}_{3}}N\,+\,{{C}_{6}}{{H}_{5}}S{{O}_{2}}Cl\,\xrightarrow{O{{H}^{-}}}\underset{insoluble}{\mathop{{{R}_{3}}N}}\,$

Azo dyes are not formed by secondary amines.
