Reaction of Ethanol and CH3MgBr.

Explanation:

  • CH3MGBR is a Grignard reagent.
  • Grignard reagents attack carbon atom to give alkoxide intermediate.
  • Grignard reagent upon reacting with ethanal gives alcohol.
  • It takes hydrogen from water and prevents the reaction from happening.
  • With the addition of formaldehyde it makes primary alcohol.
  • Other aldehydes give secondary alcohols.
  • On the other hand, ketones give territory alcohol.
  • The further acidic reaction converts that alkoxide into alcohol.
