Solution

The correct option is D $C_{4} H_{9} M g I$ and propanone, followed by hydrolysis
The reaction of propanone with butyl magnesium iodide followed by hydrolysis produces 2-methyl-2-hexanol and not 3-methyl-3-hexanol.
$C H_{3} C O C H_{3} + C_{4} H_{9} M g I H_{3} O^{+} - ------ \to - M g (O H) I C_{4} H_{9} - C (C H_{3})_{2} O H$
