Question

Acetone on treatment with CH3 - Mg - Iand on further hydrolysis gives (A) Isopropyl alcohol (B) Primary alcohol (C) Acetic acid (D) 2-methyl 2-propanol

Tardigrade Admin · Accepted Answer

Acetone reacts with Grignard's reagent to give tertiary alcohol. (CH3)2C = O + CH3MgBr xrightarrow textdry ether xrightarrowH3O+ underset texttert - butyl alcohol(CH3)3C - OH
