Answer:
b
Explanation:
The reaction of grignard reagents with nitriles will form ketones after acid work up of the imine magnesium salt intermediate. The reaction is usually done in dry degassed ether. Adding toluene co-solvent to the diethyl ether will reduce side reactions and improve yield of ketone
