Question 49

Alkyl lithium compounds are of interest in organic synthesis as efficient alkylating agents. Consider the following two reactions, where reaction (i) is $$\text{C}_4\text{H}_9\text{Li} + \text{C}_6\text{H}_6 \rightarrow \text{C}_6\text{H}_5\text{Li} + \text{C}_4\text{H}_{10}$$ and reaction (ii) is $$\text{C}_5\text{H}_5\text{Li} + \text{C}_6\text{H}_6 \rightarrow \text{C}_6\text{H}_5\text{Li} + \text{C}_5\text{H}_6$$. The correct statements for the above two reactions are
