Identify the Swarts reaction from the following:
Show Hint
- \( R-CH_2-Br + NaI \rightarrow R-CH_2-I + NaBr \)
- \( 2R-CH_2-Br + 2Na \rightarrow R-(CH_2)_2-R + 2NaBr \)
- \( 2C_6H_5Cl + 2Na \rightarrow C_6H_5-C_6H_5 + 2NaCl \)
- \( 2R-CH_2-Br + CoF_2 \rightarrow 2R-CH_2-F + CoBr_2 \)
The Correct Option is D
Solution and Explanation
Step 1: Understanding Swarts Reaction Swarts reaction is used to prepare alkyl fluorides by reacting alkyl bromides or chlorides with metal fluorides such as CoF\(_2\), Hg\(_2\)F\(_2\), or AgF.
Step 2: Identifying the Correct Reaction - Among the given reactions, only option (4) involves the replacement of Br with F using CoF\(_2\), which follows the Swarts reaction.
