Type: MCQ-conceptual-Medium-Class 12

Identify the products X and Y in the given reaction,

CH₃—CH—CH₂ + Mg → dry ether → X → D₂O → Y | Br

A

X = CH₃—CH—CH₂MgBr, Y = CH₃CH₂CH₂OH

B

X = CH₃—CH—CH₂MgBr, Y = CH₃—CH—CH₂—CH₃

C

X = CH₃—CH—CH₂MgBr, Y = CH₃—CH—CH₂—OD

D

X = CH₃—CH—CH₂MgBr, Y = CH₃—CH—CH₂—OH

Correct Answer

Option C

Detailed Explanation

The Grignard reagent reacts with D₂O to replace the MgBr group with OD, forming CH₃—CH—CH₂—OD.
