Correct Answer: D

Solution :

Key Idea: (i) \[{{\text{H}}_{\text{2}}}\text{/Ni}\]reduce -CN group to \[-\text{C}{{\text{H}}_{\text{2}}}\text{N}{{\text{H}}_{\text{2}}}\] group.                        (ii) Acetylation takes place via \[{{\text{(C}{{\text{H}}_{\text{3}}}\text{CO)}}_{\text{2}}}\text{O}\] (acetic anhydride) (iii)\[\text{OC}{{\text{H}}_{\text{3}}}\] group is not effected by these reagents
