Chapter 20, Problem 20.53P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: A stepwise mechanism for the given transformation is to be stated.

Concept introduction: Grignard reagents react with derivatives of carboxylic esters RCOZ (where, Z=ClorOR') to yield ketones or 3ο alcohols. The reaction utilizes two equivalents of Grignard reagent. However, when Z=OR';R=OR', the reaction utilizes three equivalents of Grignard reagent to yield tertiary alcohol.

So I'm working on molecular geometry. Can you help me with this stuff here and create three circles: one that's 120, one that’s 180, and one that’s 109.5?
Curved arrows are used to illustrate the flow of electrons. Using the provided starting and product structures, draw the curved electron-pushing arrows for the following reaction or mechanistic step(s). Be sure to account for all bond-breaking and bond-making steps. Problem 164 of N Select to Add Arrows CHI CH 1 1 1 P
using these can you help me , I guess convert them to lewis dit structures or full drawn out skeletal and I guess is that what would help me depict the bond angle.
