Question

Which among the following reagents convert alkyl halide into alkane?

• A. $B{u}_{3}SnH$
• B. Na/dry ether
• C. $R_{2}CuLi$
• D. All of these

Answer 1

Answer: (D)

All of these

Methods of converting alkyl halides to alkanes are:

1) Reacting alkyl halide with $B{u}_{3}SnH$

2) Reacting alkyl halide with Na/Dry Ether (Wurtz's Reaction)

3) Reaction alkyl halide with dialkyl lithium cuprate $\left(R_{2}CuLi\right)$

Hence, Option "D" is the correct answer.
