Answer:

1. SOCl2/pyridine

2. NH3

3. LiAlH4

4. H2O

Explanation:

In the conversion of  (S)-3-methyl-3-phenylpentanoic acid to (5)-3-methyl-3-phenylpentanamine, SOCl2/pyridine is first added to the  (S)-3-methyl-3-phenylpentanoic acid

This is then followed by the addition of NH3 is subsequently added followed by reduction using LiAlH4 which reduces the carbonyl carbon to an alkane. addition of water completes the mechanism and leads to the formation of the product.
