In the reaction where NH2 is transformed into NHCOCH3, determine the appropriate intermediate and resulting product.

1. (a) CH3COOCH3 leading to NHCOCH3
2. (b) CH3COOH leading to NHCOCH3
3. (c) CH3COOCH3 resulting in NHCOCH3
4. (d) CH3COOH resulting in NHCOCH3

Correct answer: (b) CH3COOH leading to NHCOCH3

Solution

The conversion of NH2 to NHCOCH3 typically involves acetylation, where CH3COOH (acetic acid) reacts with the amine group to form the amide NHCOCH3.
