A ketone and a Grignard reagent react in ether solution followed by acid workup, to form a tertiary alcohol. Grignard reactions must be scrupulously dry in order to work effectively. A common method of drying glassware is to rinse with acetone prior to use.
1. Why is rinsing with acetone not suitable for the reaction stated in the question?a)Magnesium does not dissolve in acetone. b)Water dissolves in acetone. Adding acetone will add water to the reaction flask. c)Magnesium dissolves in acetone. Adding acetone will remove a vital reactant from the flask. d)Acetone is a ketone. Grignard reagents will react with acetone to make an unwanted byproduct.

How do cfcs cause ozone depletion? how do cfcs cause ozone depletion? ultraviolet radiation breaks down cfcs, molecules containing chlorine. chlorine then breaks one oxygen atom away from ozone, leaving behind a paired oxygen molecule. ultraviolet radiation breaks down cfcs, molecules containing chlorine. chlorine then breaks two oxygen atoms away from ozone, leaving behind a paired oxygen molecule. ultraviolet radiation creates cfcs, molecules containing chlorine. chlorine then breaks two oxygen atoms away from ozone, leaving behind a paired oxygen molecule. ultraviolet radiation creates cfcs, molecules containing chlorine. chlorine then breaks one oxygen atom away from ozone, leaving behind a paired oxygen molecule.
