1 = CH3OH (methanol) + red P/I2 or, HI ---->CH3I (methyl iodide) + KCN ----->CH3CN(methyl cyanide) +Na/C2H5OH ------>CH3CH2NH2 +HNO2 ------->CH3CH2OH (ethanol)

2 = firstly convert methanol to methyl alcohol in presence of PI3 and then to methyl magnesium iodide in presence of mg/ether and then apply grignard reactions..
