An organic compound (A) contains C= $32$ %, H= $6.66$ % and N= $18.67$ %. On reduction, it gives a primary amine (B) which gives ethyl alcohol with nitrous acid. (B) gives an offensive odour on warming with $C H C l_{3}$ and KOH and gives compound (C) which on reduction forms ethyl methyl amine. Assign the structures of (A), (B) and (C).
