An organic compound A with molecular formula C2H7N on reaction with nitrous acid gives a compound B. B on controlled oxidation gives compound C. C reduces Tollen’s reagent to give silver mirror and D. B reacts with D in the presence of concentrated sulphuric acid to give sweet smelling compound E. Identify A, B, C, D and E. Give the reaction of C with ammonia.
Identify A, B, C, D and E
A = C2H5NH2
B = C2H5OH
C = CH3CHO
D = CH3COOH
E = CH3COOC2H5
Reaction of ammonia with C.
CH3CHO + NH3 →
