And here we use the ethyl chloride as the only organic starting material.
i. H3C−CH2Cl+Mgdry ether−−−−→H3C−CH2MgCl
iia. H3C−CH2Cl+NaOH→H3C−CH2OH+NaCl↓
iib. H3C−CH2OH+K2Cr2O7pyridine−−−−→H3C−C(=O)H+inorganic salts
iii. H3CC(=O)H+H3CCH2MgCl→H3CC(O−)HCH2CH3
iv. H3CC(O−)H2CH2CH3H3PO4,Δ−−−−−→H3CCH=CH2CH3+H2O(l)
v. H3CCH=CH2CH3+H2Pd−−→n-butane
A lot of work for an alkane. We could simply drill a hole in the ground and tap off the gas.
