The incorrect statement regarding $'X'$ in given reaction is $B{F_3} + LiAl{H_4}\xrightarrow{{Ether}}\left( X \right) + LiF + Al{F_3}$

A

Twelve electrons are involved in bonding

B

Four, two centre-two electron bonds

C

Two, three centre-two electron bonds

D

$X$ does not react with $NH_3$

Solution

$B{F_3} + LiAl{H_4}\xrightarrow{{Ether}}\mathop {{B_2}{H_6}}\limits_{(x)}  + LiF + Al{F_3}$

$NH_3$ can react with $B_2H_6,$

${B_2}{H_6} + 2N{H_3}\xrightarrow{{warm}}{[B{H_2}.2N{H_3}]^ + }.{[B{H_4}]^ – }$ $\xrightarrow{{200{\,^o}C}}{B_3}{N_3}{H_6}$ (Inorganic benzene)
