(a)

  (i) Hofmann bromamide degradation reaction

CH_{3}CONH_{2}+Br_{2}+4NaOH\rightarrow CH_{3}NH_{2}+Na_{2}CO_{3}+2NaBr+2H_{2}O

     (ii) Diazotisation

     (iii) Gabriel phthalimide synthesis

(b)

(i) (CH_3 )_{2}NHis more basic than (CH_3 )_{3}N in an aqueous solution because of N-H bond in (CH_3 )_{2}NH is forms hydrogen bonds in aqueous solution.

(ii) Aromatic diazonium salts are more stable than aliphatic diazonium salts because aromatic diazonium salts are resonance stabilized.
