Answer / nirmala
it is mainly used for the preparation of ethers& in this
reaction alkoxide ion(sodium alkoxide)reacts with alkyl
halides to give ethers & by using this method even aromatic
ethers also prepared.

Answer / m. k. atal
Williamson synthesis reaction is used to synthesize ether.
RONa + R’-X
ROR ’+ NaX
Where X = halogen
R&R’=alkyl group.

Answer / bhushan
The Williamson ether synthesis is an organic reaction, forming an ether from a organohalide and an alcohol. This reaction was developed by Alexander Williamson in 1850 [2]. Typically it involves the reaction of an alkoxide ion with a primary alkyl halide via an SN2 reaction. This reaction is important in the history of organic chemistry because it helped prove the structure of ethers.
Na+C2H5O− + C2H5Cl → C2H5OC2H5 + Na+Cl−
