Q. One of the products formed in the following reaction is Cyclohexylmagnesium bromide (C₆H₁₁–MgBr) + cyclohexylamine (C₆H₁₁–NH₂) →
A) Cyclohexane
B) Dicyclohexylamine (N-cyclohexylcyclohexanamine)
C) 2-Cyclohexylcyclohexan-1-amine
D) Bicyclohexyl (cyclohexylcyclohexane)
Explanation
[Solution from source] Grignard reagents are strong bases destroyed by acidic N–H protons: C₆H₁₁MgBr + C₆H₁₁NH₂ → C₆H₁₂ + C₆H₁₁NHMgBr. Cyclohexane is formed. Answer (1).
