JEE Main 2025 — 29 January, Morning Shift — Question 1

Total number of nucleophiles from the following is : $\mathrm{NH}_{3}, \mathrm{PhSH},\left(\mathrm{H}_{3} \mathrm{C}\right)_{2} \mathrm{~S}, \mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{C}=\mathrm{CH}_{2}, \stackrel{\ominus}{\mathrm{O}} \mathrm{H}, \mathrm{H}_{3} \mathrm{O}^{\oplus}$ , $\left.\left(\mathrm{CH}_{3}\right)_{2} \mathrm{CO},\right\rangle=\mathrm{NCH}_{3}$

Option A:
5
Correct
Option B:
4
Option C:
7
Option D:
6

Answer: A

Step-by-step solution

Total five nucleophiles are present $\mathrm{NH}_{3}, \mathrm{PhSH},\left(\mathrm{H}_{3} \mathrm{C}\right)_{2} \mathrm{~S}, \mathrm{CH}_{2}=\mathrm{CH}_{2}, \stackrel{\ominus}{\mathrm{O}} \mathrm{H}$
