Q. Which of the following is not an organometallic compound?
A) $C_{2}H_{5}ONa$
B) ${CH}_{3}Mgl$
C) Tetraethyl tin
D) ${KC}_{4}H_{9}$
Explanation
(a)
Organometallic compounds have carbon-metal bond, hence ${CH}_{3}Mgl$, tetraethyl tin and ${KC}_{4}H_{9}$ are organometallic compounds while $C_{2}H_{5}ONa$ is not an organometallic compound due to absence of carbon-metal bond.
