A Correct answer
Explanation

Preparation of alkylhalides by the reaction of alcohols and phosporous halide is nucleophilic substitution Reaction.
Becuase the nucleophile halide ion from phosporous halide like $PX _3,PX _5$  substitutes the $OH^{-}$ ion in alcohol, which is called as nucleophilic substitution reaction
e.g. $3CH _3-CH _2-OH+PCl _3\rightarrow 3C _2H _5-Cl+H _3PO _3$
Hence option A is correct.

Multiple choice preparation of haloalkanes halogen derivatives carbon tetrachloride ddt

Which of the following is the byproduct when $R-OH$ is reacted with $PCl _3$?

  1. $POCl _3$
  2. $H _3PO _3$
  3. $HCl$

  4. None of these
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation


$H _3PO _3$ is the byproduct when R-Cl is reacted with $PCl _3$

$3R-OH+PCl _3\rightarrow R-Cl+ H _3PO _3$

In the final product, we get a byproduct of $H _3PO _3$

Hence option B is correct.
