Best reagent for preparing a chloro alkane from an alcohol is

View answer and explanation

Correct option: A

SOC{l_2}/{C_2}{H_5}N

Option A (

SOC{l_2}/{C_2}{H_5}N

) is correct because thionyl chloride (

SOC{l_2}

) with pyridine (

{C_2}{H_5}N

) provides a clean and efficient method for converting alcohols to chloroalkanes with inversion of configuration, and the byproducts are gaseous, making purification easier.
