Grignard reagent is represented as:
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The correct answer is option 3 i.e. CH3-Mg-Cl.
The Grignard reagent CH3-Mg-Cl is a specific example of a Grignard reagent, where CH3 represents a methyl group (an alkyl group), Mg is magnesium, and Cl is chlorine. It is formed by reacting methyl chloride (CH3Cl) with magnesium in an anhydrous ether solution. This reagent is highly reactive and is widely used in organic chemistry for various reactions, such as nucleophilic addition to carbonyl compounds, leading to the formation of alcohols and other important organic compounds.
