Question

The following reaction, R— X +NaI → R—I+ NaX where, X = Cl , Br is known as (A) Swarts reaction (B) Finkelstein reaction (C) Sandmeyer’s reaction (D) Wurtz-Fittig reaction

Tardigrade Admin · Accepted Answer

The given reaction is an example of Finkelstein reaction, in which more reactive halide-ion will displace the less reactive halogen atom from alkyl-halide, i.e.

R — X + N a I R — I + N a X

where,

(X = Cl, B r)

Q. The following reaction, R—X+NaI→R—I+NaX where, X=Cl , Br is known as

Swarts reaction

Finkelstein reaction

Sandmeyer’s reaction

Wurtz-Fittig reaction

The given reaction is an example of Finkelstein reaction, in which more reactive halide-ion will displace the less reactive halogen atom from alkyl-halide, i.e. R—X+NaI​R—I+NaX where, (X=Cl,Br)

Q. The following reaction,
