(D) The reaction of diethyl ether $(C_2H_5OC_2H_5)$ with carbon monoxide $(CO)$ in the presence of a Lewis acid catalyst like $BF_3$ at high temperature $(150^{\circ}C)$ and high pressure $(500 \text{ atm})$ is a carbonylation reaction.This reaction results in the insertion of $CO$ into the $C-O$ bond of the ether to form an ester.The product formed is ethyl propionate $(C_2H_5COOC_2H_5)$.
