Question:
The major product formed when alkyl iodide is treated with excess of ammonia
The major product formed when alkyl iodide is treated with excess of ammonia
Updated On: June 02, 2025
- primary amine
- secondary amine
- tertiary amine
- quaternary ammonium salt.
Hide Solution
Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is A
Solution and Explanation
Hofmann's ammonolysis of alkyl halides usually gives a mixture of primary, secondary and tertiary amines along with some quaternary ammonium salts. However, primary amine is obtained as a major product by taking large excess of ammonia
