Explain how CH3CH2CHO can react with a Grignard reagent to produce CH3CH2CH(OH)CH2CH3. State the reagents and give the mechanism.
Use the Grignard reagent CH3CH2MgBr. CH3CH2CHO + CH3CH2MgBr ---> CH3CH2CH(OH)CH2CH3 step one: add Grignard reagent.step two: work up with H+/H20.Mechanism on whiteboard.
