Alkyl halide and aryl halide react in the presence of sodium metal and dry ether. The name of the reaction is?
Show Hint
- Wurtz Reaction
- Wurtz-Fittig Reaction
- Fittig Reaction
- Williamson Ether Synthesis
The Correct Option is B
Solution and Explanation
In the Wurtz-Fittig reaction, alkyl halides and aryl halides react in the presence of sodium metal in dry ether to form alkyl aryl compounds: \[ C_6H_5Cl + CH_3Cl + 2Na \xrightarrow{\text{Dry Ether}} C_6H_5CH_3 + 2NaCl. \]
Explanation: Wurtz Reaction involves only alkyl halides. Fittig Reaction involves only aryl halides. Williamson Ether Synthesis is unrelated to this reaction.
