Question

Hi all, Please help me with this problem below. Thanks a lot. 1/ Can 2-bromo-3-butanol be used to form a Grignard reagentwith Mg? a. No, the two species would not react at all. b. Yes, the Grignard would form and cause a new carbon bond toform between the Grignard and another molecule of2-bromo-3-butanol. c. Yes, Grignard can be formed in the presence of acidicprotons. d. No, the Grignard, once formed would pull off the acidicproton on another mole of 2-bromo-3-butanol and no longer be acarbanion. Hi all, Please help me with this problem below.
