Which of the following amine(s) show(s) positive carbamylamine test?
Which of the following amine(s) show(s) positive carbamylamine test?
Show Hint
- A and E Only
- C Only
- A and C Only
- B, C and D Only
The Correct Option is C
Solution and Explanation
The carbamylamine test is used to detect primary amines. It results in the formation of an isocyanide (carbamylamine).
Option A \( \text{NH}_2 \) (Phenylamine) is a primary amine and will give a positive result.
Option B \( \text{(CH}_3)_2\text{NH} \) (Dimethylamine) is a secondary amine and does not give a positive result.
Option C \( \text{CH}_3\text{NH}_2 \) (Methylamine) is a primary amine and will give a positive result.
Option D \( \text{(CH}_3)_3\text{N} \) (Trimethylamine) is a tertiary amine and does not give a positive result.
Option E \( \text{H}\text{NCH}_3 \) (Methylamine attached to a benzene ring) is a primary amine and will give a positive result.
Thus, the correct options are A and C.
Top Questions on Amines
- The best reagent for converting propanamide into propanamine is:
- Give plausible explanation for the following: (a) Diazonium salts of aromatic amines are stable.
(b) Aniline does not undergo Friedel–Crafts reaction.
(c) Aniline on nitration gives a substantial amount of meta product. - Assertion (A): Acetamide (structure: \(\text{C}_6\text{H}_5\text{NHCOCH}_3\)) is less basic than aniline.
Reason (R): Acetylation of aniline results in decrease of electron density on nitrogen. - The chemical test which can be used to distinguish between ethanamine and aniline is:
- If amines are arranged in increasing order of their basic strength in gaseous phase, the correct order will be:
