Question

what happens when isopropyhlchloride is heated with metallic Sodium in ether solven​

Answer 1

Explanation:

Isopropyl chloride and ethyl chloride reacts with Na In presence of dry ether and gives n-butane , 2 Methyl butane and 2,3 dimethyl butane. ... Alkyl halides when treated with sodium in the presence of dry ether, it results in formation of higher alkanes. This reaction is called as Wurtz reaction (Coupling reaction).
