    \[{{C}_{2}}{{H}_{5}}OH+SOC{{l}_{2}}\xrightarrow{pyridine}\]                                     \[{{C}_{2}}{{H}_{5}}Cl+S{{O}_{2}}+HCl\] The above reaction is known as:

    A)  Williamsons synthesis

    B)  Hoffmanns reaction

    C)  Mendius reaction

    D)  Darzens process

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    The reaction of straight chain primary alcohols with thionyl chloride to form chlorobenzene is called Darzens reaction. \[ROH+SOC{{l}_{2}}\xrightarrow{Pyridine}RCl+S{{O}_{2}}+HCl\] Hoffmanns-Bromamide reaction: \[\underset{Amide}{\mathop{RCON{{H}_{2}}}}\,+B{{r}_{2}}+4KOH\xrightarrow{{}}\underset{p-\text{amine}}{\mathop{RN{{H}_{2}}}}\,+{{K}_{2}}C{{O}_{3}}\]                                                     \[+2KBr+2{{H}_{2}}O\] Mendius reaction: \[\underset{\begin{smallmatrix}  (Alkyl\,or \\  aryl\,cyanide) \end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{RCN}}\,+4[H]\xrightarrow{Na/{{C}_{2}}{{H}_{5}}OH}\underset{A\operatorname{mine}}{\mathop{RC{{H}_{2}}}}\,N{{H}_{2}}\] Williamson synthesis: \[\underset{\begin{smallmatrix}  Alkyl \\  halide \end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{RX}}\,+\underset{\begin{smallmatrix}  Sodium \\  alkoxide  \\  or\,phenoxide \end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{RONa}}\,\xrightarrow{{}}\underset{Ether}{\mathop{ROR}}\,+NaX\]
