Which of the following yields both alkane and alkene ?

A

(a) Williamson's synthesis

B

(b) Kolbe's reaction

C

(c) Wurtz reaction

D

(d) Sandmeyer's reaction

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
. Williamson's synthesis is used for the preparation of ether.
. Kolbe's reaction is used for the prepatation of alkanes, alkenes, and alkynes.
. Wurtz reaction is used for the preparation of higher alkanes (even number and symmertrical alkanes when R group is the same). With two different R groups mixed, alkanes are obtained.
. Sandmeyer reaction is used for the preparation of varius compounds from diazo compounds.
