Question

Wurt'z reaction of methyl iodide yields an organic compound X. Which of the following reaction also yields X?

• A. ${C_2}{H_5}Cl + LiAl{H_4}\xrightarrow[{solvent}]{{org}}B$
• B. ${C_2}{H_5}Cl + Mg\xrightarrow{ \text {Dry ether}}$
• C. $C_{2}H_{5}Cl+C_{2}H_{5}ONa\xrightarrow{{}}$
• D. $CHCl_{5}Cl+Ag(powder)\xrightarrow{\Delta }$

Answer 1

Answer: (A)

${C_2}{H_5}Cl + LiAl{H_4}\xrightarrow[{solvent}]{{org}}B$

Answer 2

$2CH_3 + 2Na \xrightarrow{\text{Dry ether}} \underset{\text{ethane}}{CH_3 - CH_2} + 2Nal$
$4 C_2H_5Cl + LiAlH_4 \rightarrow \underset{\text{ethane}}{4C_2H_6} + AlCl_3 + LiCl$
