  2. B \(\mathrm{CH}_3 \mathrm{MgBr}\)
  3. C \(\left(\mathrm{CH}_3\right)_3 \mathrm{CMgBr}\)
  4. D \(\left(\mathrm{CH}_3\right)_2 \mathrm{CH}-\mathrm{Br}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(\mathrm{CH}_3 \mathrm{MgBr}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

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