Question
What is the product when CH₃CH₂NH₂ reacts with CH₃CH₂COCH₃ followed by H₂/Ni ?
Explanation
Ethanamine reacts with butan-2-one ( CH₃CH₂COCH₃ ) to form an imine, reduced by H₂/Ni to CH₃CH₂NHCH(CH₃)CH₂CH₃ (N-(butan-2-yl)ethanamine). This follows from NCERT principle where the relation explains the outcome clearly for students in simple steps.
