Identify the suitable reagent for the reaction given below.

Identify the suitable reagent for the reaction given below.

1. $\left(\mathrm{CH}_3ight)_2 \mathrm{CHMgBr}$
2. $\mathrm{CH}_3 \mathrm{MgBr}$
3. $\left(\mathrm{CH}_3ight)_3 \mathrm{CMgBr}$
4. $\left(\mathrm{CH}_3ight)_2 \mathrm{CH}-\mathrm{Br}$

Solution

Ketones are converted to alcohols by using Grignard reagent followed by hydrolysis. So, the reagent in the reaction will be $\mathrm{CH}_3 \mathrm{MgBr}$ *
