View answer and explanation
Correct option: B
CH3CH2CH2NC{CH}_3 {CH}_2 {CH}_2 {NC}
Option B (CH3CH2CH2NC) is correct because the hydrolysis of propyl isocyanide yields propylamine and formic acid. Propylamine, upon treatment with NaNO2 and HCl, gives propanol, which does not respond to the iodoform test. Formic acid reduces Tollen's reagent and Fehling's solution.
