Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The structure for the ternary complex is to be proposed and all the products of the reaction, when carbonyl group is attacked by a Grignard reagent, is to be written.

Concept Introduction:

▸ The general formula of the Grignard reagent is R-Mg-X, where R is any alkyl or aryl group and X is the halogen.

▸ The Grignard reagent acts as a strong nucleophile, easily reacting with electrophiles like aldehydes, ketones and ester.

▸ The group C=O is known as the carbonyl group. The aldehyde and ketone functional groups contain the carbonyl group.
