Question

The reaction of CH 3 MgBr with acetone and hydrolysis of the resulting product gives (A) ( CH 3)3 COH (B) ( CH 3)2 CHOH (C) CH 3 CH 2 CH 2 OH (D) CH 3 CH 2 CH 2 CH 2 OH

(CH3)2C =O xrightarrow[(ii) H+/H2O](i) CH3MgBr(CH3)3COH

Q. The reaction of $C H_{3} M g B r$ with acetone and hydrolysis of the resulting product gives

$(C H_{3})_{3} CO H$

$(C H_{3})_{2} C H O H$

$C H_{3} C H_{2} C H_{2} O H$

$C H_{3} C H_{2} C H_{2} C H_{2} O H$

$(C H_{3})_{2} C = O (i) C H_{3} MgBr (ii) H^{+} / H_{2} O (CH X_{3}) X_{3} COH$
