    What are the reagent and reaction conditions used for converting ethylchloride to ethylnitrite (as the maj or product)?

    A)  \[KN{{O}_{2}},{{C}_{2}}{{H}_{5}}OH,\text{ }{{H}_{2}}O,\text{ }\Delta \]

    B)  \[NaN{{O}_{2}},HCl,0{{\,}^{o}}C\]

    C)  \[KCN,{{H}_{2}}O,\Delta \]

    D)  \[AgN{{O}_{2}},{{C}_{2}}{{H}_{5}}OH,{{H}_{2}}O,\Delta \]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

                     Potassium nitrite converts ethyl chloride into ethyl nitrite. \[{{C}_{2}}{{H}_{5}}KN{{O}_{2}}\xrightarrow[\Delta ]{{{C}_{2}}{{H}_{5}}OH}\underset{\text{ethyl}\,\text{nitrite}}{\mathop{{{C}_{2}}{{H}_{5}}ONO}}\,\] \[+KCl\]
