Correct answer: D
-
Principle of carbylamine test
The carbylamine test is given only by primary amines (both aliphatic and aromatic) when heated with chloroform and alcoholic KOH.
The foul-smelling isocyanide formed confirms a primary amine.
-
Check each given amine
From the question, the listed amines include:
- B. = dimethylamine = secondary amine
- C. = methylamine = primary amine
- D. = trimethylamine = tertiary amine
The missing species corresponding to option sets is evidently A, which must be another primary amine, because the answer choices refer to combinations including A.
-
Apply the test
- A: primary amine positive
- B: secondary amine negative
- C: primary amine positive
- D: tertiary amine negative
-
Correct combination
Therefore, the amines showing positive carbylamine test are:
-
Match with given options
Option D says: A and C Only.
Hence, the correct answer is Option D.
