Ethyl chloride reacts with sodium ethoxide to form a compound \(A\). Which of the following reactions also yields \(A\) ?
- A \(\mathrm{C}_2 \mathrm{H}_5 \mathrm{Cl}, \mathrm{KOH}\) (alc. ), \(\Delta\)
- B \(2 \mathrm{C}_2 \mathrm{H}_5 \mathrm{OH}\), conc. \(\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{SO}_4, 140^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\)
- C \(\mathrm{C}_2 \mathrm{H}_5 \mathrm{Cl}, \mathrm{Mg}\) (dry ether)
- D \(\mathrm{C}_2 \mathrm{H}_2\) dil \(\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{SO}_4, \mathrm{HgSO}_4\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) \(2 \mathrm{C}_2 \mathrm{H}_5 \mathrm{OH}\), conc. \(\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{SO}_4, 140^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Ethyl chloride reacts with sodium ethoxide to form diethyl ether as Diethyl ether is also obtained by reaction of ethyl alcohol with conc. \(\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{SO}_4\) at \(140^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\).
