Question

Ethyl chloride is converted into diethyl ether by (A) Wurtz synthesis (B) Grignard reaction (C) Perkin- reaction (D) Williamson- synthesis

Tardigrade Admin · Accepted Answer

C 2 H 5 Cl + Na 2 OC 2 H 5 longrightarrow C 2 H 5- O - C 2 H 5+ NaCl It is an example of Williamson's synthesis. Limitations of Williamson's Synthesis 3° alkyl halide does not gives Williamson's synthesis if 3° alkyl halide used in reaction then alkene formed.

$C_{2} H_{5} Cl + N a_{2} O C_{2} H_{5} ⟶ C_{2} H_{5} - O - C_{2} H_{5} + N a Cl$
It is an example of Williamson's synthesis.
Limitations of Williamson's Synthesis
$3^{\circ}$ alkyl halide does not gives Williamson's synthesis if $3^{\circ}$ alkyl halide used in reaction then alkene formed.
