Question

Name the reagent used to convert bromoethane to ethoxyethane

Answer 1

williamson's ether is the reagent used for the following conversion

Answer 2

To convert bromoethane to ethoxyethane substance called dry silver oxide is used as the reagent.

• Among the given substances, bromoethane ($C_2H_5Br$) is an alkyl halide whereas ethoxyethane ($C_2H_5OC_2H_5$) is ether.
• To obtain ether form alkyl halides or convert alkyl halide to ether, the alkyl halide must be heated with reagent called dry silver oxide ($Ag_2O$). This process converts alkyl halide to ether.
• Accordingly bromoethane is converted into ethoxyethane and silver bromide.
• The equation involved in the reaction is as follows:

$2 C_{2} H_{5} B r+A g_{2} O \stackrel{\Delta}{\rightarrow} C_{2} H_{5}-O-C_{2} H_{5}+2 A g B r$
