Chlorobenzene to biphenyl
Chlorobenzene to biphenyl
Show Hint
Solution and Explanation
To convert chlorobenzene to biphenyl, you can use the Wurtz-Fittig reaction. In this reaction, chlorobenzene undergoes a coupling reaction with another molecule of chlorobenzene in the presence of sodium metal in dry ether, resulting in biphenyl. \[ 2 \, \text{C}_6\text{H}_5\text{Cl} \xrightarrow{\text{Na, Ether}} \text{C}_6\text{H}_5\text{C}_6\text{H}_5 \]
