Question

Methyl bromide reacts with AgF to give methyl fluoride and AgBr. This reaction is called
(a) Finkelstein reaction
(b) Swarts reaction
(c) Fittig reaction
(d) Wurtz reaction

Answer 1

the answer is wurtz reaction

Answer 2

Answer:(b) Swarts reaction is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Swartz reaction is stated as follows:

When alkyl bromide of alkyl choride is reacted with AgF or Hg2F2, a compund is formed.

The compund is alkyl bromide/chloride.

This is known as Swartz reaction.

This reaction is often used in laboratory jobs now a days.

Hence, when Methyl bromide reacts with AgF to give methyl fluoride and AgBr.

Reaction is as follows

CH3Br+AgF===> CH3F+ AgBr

This reaction is Swartz reaction.
