Which statements are True ?
A. In Hoffmann bromamide degradation, $\displaystyle 4$ moles of NaOH and $\displaystyle 2$ moles of $\displaystyle \mathrm{Br}_2$ are consumed per mole of an amide
B. Hoffmann bromamide reaction is not given by alkyl amides.
C. Primary amines can be synthesized by Hoffmann bromamide degradation.
D. Secondary amide on reaction with $\displaystyle \mathrm{Br}_2$ and NaOH will give secondary amine.
E. The by-products of Hoffmann degradation are $\displaystyle \mathrm{Na}_2 \mathrm{CO}_3, \mathrm{NaBr}$ and $\displaystyle \mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}$.
