The compound which is not formed when a mixture of n-butyl bromide and ethyl bromide treated with sodium metal in presence of dry ether is :
Open in App
Solution
The correct option is D ethane
The compound which is not formed when a mixture of n-butyl bromide and ethyl bromide treated with sodium metal in the presence of dry ether is ethane, CH3−CH3.
The following products are obtained during the reaction.
2CH3−CH2−BrethylbromideNa−−−−−→dryetherCH3−CH2−CH2−CH3butane
2CH3−CH2−CH2−CH2−Brn−butylbromideNa−−−−−→dryetherCH3−CH2−CH2−CH2−CH2−CH2−CH2−CH3octane
CH3−CH2−CH2−CH2−Brn−butylbromide+CH3−CH2−BrethylbromideNa−−−−−→dryetherCH3−CH3hexane
So, the corret option is D
