Hello Dear.

There are plenty of ways to form ethyl cyanide but Ethyl Isocyanide only formed when Ethyl bromide reacts with alcoholic silver cyanide .

Reactions :-

CH₃CH₂-Br + AgCN -----→ CH₃CH₂-NC + AgBr

Ethyl Bromide + Silver cyanide ---→ Ethyl Isocyanide + Silver Bromide

___________________________

Reason/ Explanation :-

It forms Isocyanide because Compound AgCN have higher covalent character so that lone pairs comes to the nitrogen instead of carbon. while in other compounds like NaCN & KCN lone pairs join carbon atom.

Hope it Helps. :-)
