    Which of the following compounds when heated with \[CO\] at \[{{150}^{o}}C\] and \[500\,\,atm\] pressure in presence of \[B{{F}_{3}}\] forms ethyl propionate?

    A) \[{{C}_{2}}{{H}_{5}}OH\]                              

    B) \[C{{H}_{3}}OC{{H}_{3}}\]

    C) \[{{C}_{2}}{{H}_{5}}O{{C}_{2}}{{H}_{5}}\]                             

    D)  \[C{{H}_{3}}O{{C}_{2}}{{H}_{5}}\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    Diethyl ether when heated with \[CO\] at \[{{150}^{o}}C\] and 500 aim pressure in presence of \[B{{F}_{3}}\] forms ethyl propionate. \[{{C}_{2}}{{H}_{5}}O{{C}_{2}}{{H}_{5}}+CO\xrightarrow[500\,\,atm]{{{150}^{o}}C\,\,\Delta }\underset{ethyl\,\,propionate}{\mathop{{{C}_{2}}{{H}_{5}}COO{{C}_{2}}{{H}_{5}}}}\,\]
