Which is the best reagent to convert isopropyl alcoholto isopropyl bromide? `CH_(3)-overset(CH_(3))overset(|)(CH)-OH overset(?)(rarr) CH_(3)-overset(CH_(3))overset(|)(CH)-Br`
A
`HBr`
B
`SOBr_(2)`
C
`Br_(2)`
D
`CH_(3)MgBr`
Text Solution
Verified by Experts
The correct Answer is:
B
`CH_(3)-overset(CH_(3))overset(|)(CH)-OH overset(SOBr_(2))(rarr) CH_(3)-overset(CH_(3))overset(|)(CH_(3))-Br+SO_(2)+HBr` side products are gases. In case of `HBr` elimination also favours to produce alkene.
