Did you do any research on the subject yourself? Explain what you already did, where you got stuck, give some background on the reaction/synthesis you are doing, give concrete compound names. Doing so helps a lot in getting meaningful answers. Just a very generic spoonfeeding request like this post usually does not lead to useful responses.

@bjo163, what do you think sodium will do in the presence of an alcohol?
