Vedclass · Answer

(D) The reaction of primary aliphatic amines with nitrous acid $(HNO_2)$ is complex. Methylamine $(CH_3NH_2)$ reacts with $HNO_2$ to form methyl nitrite $(CH_3-O-N=O)$ and dimethyl ether $(CH_3-O-CH_3)$ along with nitrogen gas and water. The reactions are as follows: $CH_3NH_2 + HNO_2 	o CH_3-O-N=O + N_2 + H_2O$ $2CH_3NH_2 + 2HNO_2 	o CH_3-O-CH_3 + 2N_2 + 3H_2O$ Therefore,both products are formed.
