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.
