Reduction of alkyl halides

(v) Reduction of alkyl halides

reduction can also be done by a. LiAlH
₄
b. Na/C
₂
H
₅
OH c. Zn – Cu Couple

Zn – Cu couple is Zn wetted by Cu. It is prepared by putting CuSO
₄
on Zn granules present in flask which leads to Cu deposition on them.

(vi) Wurtz Reaction

Two following mechanism have been suggested for wurtz reaction:

If we take one alkyl and one aryl group, this is known as wurtz fittig reaction (practically possible)

(vii) Sabatier Senderon’s Reduction (Hydrogenation of alkyne or alkenes)

(viii) Decarboxylation by Sodalime (NaOH + CaO)
