Which of the following is NOT a correct method of the preparation of benzylamine from cyanobenzene?
  1. (A)(i)
    (ii)     ✓ Correct
  2. (B)(i)
    (ii)
    (ii)
  3. (C)(i) (gas)
  4. (D)

Answer: (A)

Solution

Benzylamine comes from cyanobenzene by reducing the group straight to , which , catalytic , or all accomplish. The route that fails starts by treating the nitrile with , which only hydrolyses it to benzoic acid, and cannot then reduce that acid to an amine - so that sequence does not give benzylamine.
