Identify XX and YY in the following sequence

C2H5BrXproductYC3H7NH2C_{2}H_{5}Br\overset{\quad X\quad}{\rightarrow}\text{product}\overset{\quad Y\quad}{\rightarrow}C_{3}H_{7}NH_{2}.

A

X=KCN,Y=LiAlH4X = KCN,Y = LiAlH_{4}

B

X=KCN,Y=H3O+X = KCN,Y = H_{3}O^{+}

C

X=CH3Cl,Y=AlCl3/HClX = CH_{3}Cl,Y = AlCl_{3}/HCl

D

X=CH3NH2,Y=HNO2X = CH_{3}NH_{2},Y = HNO_{2}

Answer

X=KCN,Y=LiAlH4X = KCN,Y = LiAlH_{4}

Explanation

Solution

C2H5BrKCN(X)C2H5CNLiAlH4(Y)C_{2}H_{5}Br\overset{\quad KCN(X)\quad}{\rightarrow}C_{2}H_{5}CN\overset{\quad LiAlH_{4}(Y)\quad}{\rightarrow}

C2H5CH2NH2(C3H7NH2)C_{2}H_{5}CH_{2}NH_{2}(C_{3}H_{7}NH_{2})

X=KCN,Y=LiAlH4X = KCN,Y = LiAlH_{4}
