Nylon-6 is prepared by linear condensation homopolymerization reaction of:

  1. caprolactum
  2. hexamethylene diamine and adipic acid
  3. 6 -aminohexanoic acid
  4. acrylonitrile

Correct answer: 6 -aminohexanoic acid

Solution

Nylon-6 is formed by condensation polymerization of 6-aminohexanoic acid, which contains both functional groups needed to link repeatedly into a polyamide. The other options correspond to different polymers or nylon-6,6.
