Hide Solution
Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is B
Solution and Explanation
The Finkelstein reaction involves nucleophilic substitution of an alkyl halide (usually RCl or RBr) with NaI in acetone.
This leads to the formation of alkyl iodide (RI).
RCl + NaI → RI + NaCl (precipitates in acetone)
This leads to the formation of alkyl iodide (RI).
RCl + NaI → RI + NaCl (precipitates in acetone)
