Hi there.. In this ques a primary aliphatic amine is diazotised.. Hence it will form carbocation at the place.. Now I am assuming that you know the concept of ring expansion ..i.e; when a ring is 5 membered and a carbocation is attached to it comes on the ring and ring becomes 6 membered... Now the carbocation will come to C-atom which is attached to OH. Hence after losing H from OH a ketone will be formed... hope you got it... Please approve!!
