You can best prepare a primary aminefrom its alkylazide by reduction or by the Gabriel synthesis. In the Gabriel synthesis, potassium phthalimide is reacted with an alkyl halide to produce an N‐alkyl phthalimide. This N‐alkylphthalimide can be hydrolyzed by aqueous acids or bases into the primary amine.

Answer: The chemical reaction for the synthesis is given below.
Explanation:
Gabriel phthalimide synthesis is used for the preparation of 1° amines. This involves the reaction of potassium salt of phthalimide and then with ethyl chloride followed by hydrolysis to produce 1° amine.
The chemical reaction for the synthesis of ethyl amine is given in the image attached below.
