Compound A is a branched-chain alcohol that undergoes oxidation to produce compound B. Compound B is a ketone that gives positive triiodomethane reaction. Compound B is then reacted with phenyl magnesium bromide
Organomagnesium compounds
The interaction of alkyl halide with Mg metal in a suitable ether solvent is the common method for the synthesis of the Grignard reagent.
Hydrolysis Grignard Reactions and Reduction
Organomagnesium halides are Grignard reagents. Francois Auguste Victor Grignard, a French chemist who received the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1912, created these highly useful reagents.
Compound A is a branched-chain alcohol that undergoes oxidation to produce compound B. Compound B is a
