    The reagent which does not convert n-butyl chloride into n-butane is

    A) \[Zn,HCl\]

    B)  \[LiAl{{H}_{4}}\]

    C)  \[Mg,\] anhydrous ether,\[{{H}_{2}}O\]

    D)  \[{{B}_{2}}{{H}_{6}}\] in THF

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    \[Zn+HCl,LiAl{{H}_{4}}\]and Mg, anhydrous ether\[+{{H}_{2}}O\] etc., convert n-butyl chloride into n-butane but \[{{B}_{2}}{{H}_{6}}\]in THF does not convert n-butyl chloride into n-butane. \[{{C}_{4}}{{H}_{9}}Cl\xrightarrow{Zn\,+HCl}\underset{n-\text{butane}}{\mathop{{{C}_{4}}{{H}_{10}}}}\,\] \[{{C}_{4}}{{H}_{9}}Cl+2H\xrightarrow[-2HCl]{LiAl{{H}_{4}}}\underset{n-\text{butane}}{\mathop{{{C}_{4}}{{H}_{10}}}}\,\] \[{{C}_{4}}{{H}_{9}}Cl+Mg\xrightarrow[\text{ether}]{\text{Anhydrous}}{{C}_{4}}{{H}_{9}}MgCl\xrightarrow{{{H}_{2}}O}\]
