The reaction of bromobenzene with bromomethane and sodium metal in dry ether to give toluene is

The reaction involves an aryl halide and an alkyl halide reacting with sodium metal in dry ether to produce an alkylbenzene, which characterizes the Wurtz-Fittig reaction.

The general form is $Ar-X + R-X + 2Na \xrightarrow{\text{dry ether}} Ar-R + 2NaX$.

For bromobenzene and bromomethane, the reaction is $C_6H_5Br + CH_3Br + 2Na \xrightarrow{\text{dry ether}} C_6H_5CH_3 + 2NaBr$.

This distinguishes it from the Wurtz reaction (two alkyl halides), the Fittig reaction (two aryl halides), and the Friedel-Crafts reaction (uses Lewis acid catalyst, not sodium metal).

The correct identification is $\boxed{D}$.
