Give the following conversion:
$P h C O O H ⟶ P h C (C H_{3})_{2} O H$

Open in App

Solution

In this reaction, first Benzoic acid reacts with $S O C l_{2}$ to form a corresponding acyl chloride group.
This group then reacts with Grignard's reagent ( $C H_{3} M g B r$ ) to give $P h C (C H_{3})_{2} O H$ as a product.
