MCQ
Which of the following statements is wrong?
  • A
    Ethyl chloride on reduction with $Zn-Cu$ couple and alcohol gives ethane.
  • The reaction of methyl magnesium bromide with acetone gives butanol $-2$
  • C
    Alkyl halides follow the following reactivity sequence on reaction with alkenes.
    $R - I > R - Br > R - Cl > R - I$
  • D
    $C_2H_4Cl_2$ may exist in two isomeric forms

Answer

Correct option: B.
The reaction of methyl magnesium bromide with acetone gives butanol $-2$
