To complete the reaction sequence provided in the question, we will follow the steps outlined in the video transcript. Here’s a step-by-step breakdown of the reactions: ### Step 1: Reaction with Grignard Reagent 1. **Starting Compound**: The starting compound is acetone, which is represented as \( CH_3COCH_3 \). 2. **Grignard Reagent**: The Grignard reagent used is \( CH_3MgBr \). 3. **Nucleophilic Attack**: The nucleophile (from the Grignard reagent) attacks the electrophilic carbon of the carbonyl group (C=O) in acetone. This leads to the formation of a tetrahedral intermediate. 4. **Formation of Alcohol**: Upon hydrolysis (reaction with water), this intermediate will convert into an alcohol. The product formed is \( CH_3C(OH)(CH_3) \), which is 2-propanol (or isopropanol). This compound is labeled as (A). ...
