STANDARD Chemistry Grignard Reagents MCQ Question
Identify the products X and Y in the given reaction,
CH₃—CH—CH₂ + Mg → dry ether → X → D₂O → Y | Br
X = CH₃—CH—CH₂MgBr, Y = CH₃CH₂CH₂OH
X = CH₃—CH—CH₂MgBr, Y = CH₃—CH—CH₂—CH₃
X = CH₃—CH—CH₂MgBr, Y = CH₃—CH—CH₂—OD
X = CH₃—CH—CH₂MgBr, Y = CH₃—CH—CH₂—OH
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
The Grignard reagent reacts with D₂O to replace the MgBr group with OD, forming CH₃—CH—CH₂—OD.
