A) Wurtz synthesis
B) Corey-House synthesis
C) Kolbe synthesis
D) Friedel-Crafts synthesis
Correct Answer: B
Solution :
The reaction in which first, an alkyl halide reacts with lithium and \[CuI\] to give lithium dialkylcuprate which on further reaction with alkyl halide, gives alkane, is known as Corey-House synthesis. \[C{{H}_{3}}C{{H}_{2}}Cl\xrightarrow[-LiCl]{Li}C{{H}_{3}}C{{H}_{2}}Li\xrightarrow{CuI}\] \[{{(C{{H}_{3}}C{{H}_{2}})}_{2}}CuLi\] \[\xrightarrow{C{{H}_{3}}C{{H}_{2}}Cl}\underset{n-\,bu\tan e}{\mathop{C{{H}_{3}}C{{H}_{2}}C{{H}_{2}}C{{H}_{3}}}}\,+C{{H}_{3}}C{{H}_{2}}Cu\] \[+LiCl\]
