(a)

Interpretation Introduction

To determine: The synthesis of the given ether by alkoxymercuration-demercuration and Williamson synthesis methods.

Interpretation: The synthesis of the given ether by alkoxymercuration-demercuration and Williamson synthesis methods is to be stated.

Concept introduction: The reaction of an alkoxide ion with 1° alkyl halide through SN2 mechanism to form ether is known as Williamson synthesis.

In alkoxymercuration-demercuration, ether is produced when alkene reacts with an alcohol in the presence of mercury acetate.
