Detailed Solution

Given data : It is given to identify which of the following cannot be used for the preparation of ethyl chloride from ethyl alcohol

Explanation

In the vicinity of activating substituents like carbonyls and sulfoxides, SO2Cl2 serves as a reagent in the conversion of CH to CCl

Alkanes, alkenes, alkynes, aromatics, ethers (such tetrahydrofuran), and epoxides are also chlorinated by it. When utilizing an initiator like AIBN, these reactions take place under the influence of free radicals.

Hence , the correct option (C). SO2Cl2.
