WURTZ-FITTIG REACTION

Wurtz-Fittig Reaction





This reaction allows the alkylation of aryl halides. The more reactive alkyl halide forms an organosodium first, and this reacts as a nucleophile with an aryl halide as the electrophile. Excess alkyl halide and sodium may be used if the symmetric coupled alkanes formed as a side product may be separated readily.
