Grignard reagent

Vedclass · Answer

(B) Grignard reagents $(RMgX)$ react with both aldehydes and ketones to form addition products (adducts),which upon hydrolysis yield alcohols.For aldehydes: $RCHO + R'MgX 	o RCH(OMgX)R' \xrightarrow{H_2O} RCH(OH)R'$For ketones: $RCOR' + R''MgX 	o RC(OMgX)(R')R'' \xrightarrow{H_2O} RC(OH)(R')R''$Fehling's reagent,Schiff's reagent,and Tollen's reagent are specific tests used to distinguish aldehydes from ketones,as they react with aldehydes but not with ketones.
