Question:medium
An organic compound (A) with molecular formula C₂H₇N reacts with nitrous acid to form compound (B) which is unstable. Hence compound (B) gets converted to compound (C). Compound (C) is used as a substitute for petrol. Identify compounds (A), (B) and (C).

Show Hint
While aliphatic diazonium salts are unstable and turn into alcohols, aromatic diazonium salts (like benzenediazonium chloride) are relatively stable at cold temperatures (0-5C) and are vital intermediates in synthetic organic chemistry.
