g Part A A Hofmann degradation of a primary amine forms an alkene that gives butanal and 2-methylpropanal upon ozonolysis and workup under reducing conditions. Identify the amine.

Answer :

Answer:

 

Explanation:

When the primary amine undergoes Hofmann degradation it forms an Alkene

In this case the alkenes have undergone ozonolysis and has formed two products as butanal and 2-methyl propanal

when we revert back from these aldehydes to alkene we observed the alkene formed will be "2-methyl hept-3-ene " this alkene is the Hofmann product of that primary amine

upon addition of this alkene we observe the primary amine formed is

4-amino-2-methylheptane
