Answer:
Reaction mechanism has been given below
Explanation:
- Propanoyl chloride contains an electrophilic carbonyl center to give nucleophilic acyl substitution reaction by removing Cl group with a strong nucleophile like methylmagnesium bromide.
- Two equivalent of methyl magnesium bromide react with cabonyl center followed by protonation of negatively charged oxygen atom gives 2-methyl-2-butanol.
- In the first step, nucleophilic acyl substituion occurs. In the second step, nucleophilic addition occurs. In the third step, protonation occurs.
- Reaction mechanism has been shown below.
