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. :-)
