Which one of the following cannot be prepared from B _ 2 H _ 6 ?

Which one of the following cannot be prepared from B2H6?{B}_{2} {H}_{6} \text{?}

Options

  1. A{\text{NaBH}_{4}
  2. B{B}_{2} {{\text{(CH}_{3} \text{)}_{4} {H}_{2}
  3. C{B}_{2} {{\text{(CH}_{3} \text{)}_{6}
  4. D{H}_{3} {\text{BO}_{3}

Correct answer

C. {B}_{2} {{\text{(CH}_{3} \text{)}_{6}

Step-by-step solution

In diborane, {\text{(B}_{2} {H}_{6} \text{)} molecule, only four terminal hydrogen atoms are replaceable. The two bridge H\text{H}-atoms cannot be substituted. Hence {B}_{2} {{\text{(CH}_{3} \text{)}_{6} cannot be prepared from B2H6.{B}_{2} {H}_{6}.
