Read the assertin and reason carefully to mark the correct option out of the options given
Assertion : In Hofmann bromamide reaction, the amine formed has one carbon atom less than the parent 1° amide.
Reason : N-methyl acetamide undergoes Hofmann bromamide reaction.
| A. |
If both assertion and reason are true and the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion |
| B. |
If both assertion and reason are true but the reason is not the correct explanation of the assertion |
| C. |
If assertion is true but reason is false |
 |
| D. |
If bot assertion and reason are false. |
Only 1° amines undergo Hofmann bromanide reaction. Since `CH_3 CONHCH_3` is a 2° amine therefore, it does not undergo Hofmann bromanide reaction.
