Question

Match List I with List II 

List I		List II
A		I	Fittig reaction
B		II	Wurtz Fittig reaction
C		III	Finkelstein reaction
D	\(C_{2}H_{5}CI + NaI \rightarrow C_{2}H_{5}I + NaCl\)	IV	Sandmeyer reaction

 Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

• A. A - III, B - II, C - IV, D - I
• B. A - II, B - I, C - IV, D - III
• C. A - IV, B - II, C - III, D - I
• D. A - II, B - I, C - III, D - IV

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

To correctly match List I with List II, we must understand the reactions represented by the chemical equations and their common names.

1. Analyzing List I:
   • Image A: This reaction involves the formation of a compound by combining benzene (phenyl group) with an alkyl group in the presence of sodium. This is a characteristic of the Wurtz Fittig reaction.
   • Image B: This reaction shows the coupling of two chlorobenzene molecules with the help of sodium, leading to the formation of biphenyl. Such a reaction is known as the Fittig reaction.
   • Image C: This reaction involves the replacement of a diazonium group with a chlorine atom using copper(I) chloride (Cu₂Cl₂). This is known as a Sandmeyer reaction.
   • Equation D: The equation \(C_{2}H_{5}Cl + NaI \rightarrow C_{2}H_{5}I + NaCl\) represents the Finkelstein reaction, which involves halogen exchange facilitated by sodium iodide.

Now, let's match each correctly from List I to List II:

• A - II: Matches with the Wurtz Fittig reaction.
• B - I: Matches with the Fittig reaction.
• C - IV: Matches with the Sandmeyer reaction.
• D - III: Matches with the Finkelstein reaction.

Therefore, the correct answer is: A - II, B - I, C - IV, D - III.
