Question

Write the reaction of aliphatic and aromatic primary amine with nitrous acid

Answer 1

Answer:

When aliphatic primary or aromatic amine reacts with nitrous acid it forms nitro alkane or nitrobenzene

Answer 2

$\huge\textcolor{orange}{\rm{Answer :-}}$

●Aromatic primary amines react with $HNO_2$ at 273–278 K to form aromatic diazonium salts.

●Aliphatic primary amines also react with $HNO_2$ at 273–278 K to form aliphatic diazonium salts. However, these are unstable even at low temperature and therefore, decompose readily to form alcohols (generally predominate) and $N_2$ is evolved.
