In the reaction

A

`CH_(3)CH_(2)OCH_(2)CH_(3)`

B

`CH_(3)CH_(2)OCH_(3)`

C

`CH_(3)CH_(2)OSO_(2)OCH_(3)`

D

`CH_(3)CH_(2)OSO_(2)OCH_(2)CH_(3)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
It is williamson syntesis. The alkoxide ion reacts with the substrate in an `S_(N)2` reaction with the resulting formation of an ether. The substrate must bbear a good leaving group. Typical substrates are alkuyl halides, alkyl sulphonates and dialkyl sulphates.

`CH_(3)CH_(2)OCH_(2)CH_(3)+Na^(+)overline(O)SO_(2)CG_(3)`
Note that`-OSO_(2)CH_(2)CH_(3)` is a better leaving group than `-SO_(3)CH_(2)CH_(3)`
