AI Generated Solution

To prepare the ethers Benzyl methyl ether `(A)` and Phenylethyl ether `(B)` via Williamson's synthesis, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Williamson Synthesis Williamson synthesis involves the reaction of an alkyl halide with a sodium alkoxide to form an ether. The alkyl halide should preferably be a primary halide to avoid elimination reactions. ### Step 2: Prepare Benzyl Methyl Ether `(A)` 1. **Identify the Alkyl Halide and Alkoxide:** - For Benzyl methyl ether, we need to use chloromethane (CH3Cl) as the alkyl halide. ...
