1.

Statement 1: Diisopropyl ketone on reaction with isopropyl magnesium bromide followed by hydrolysis gives 2^(@) alcohol. Statement 2: Grignard reagent acts as a reducing agent.

Answer»

a.Statement 1 and Statement 2 are true and Statement 2 is the correct explanation of Statement 1.
b.Statement 1 and Statement 2 are true and Statement 2 is not the correct explanation of Statement 1.
c.Statement 1 is true and statement 2 is false.
d.Statement 1 is false and statement 2 is false

Solution :
Hence, the G.R. acts as a REDUCING agent because the REACTION takes place via HYDRIDE ION `(H^(ɵ))` transfer to KETONE and G.R. itself is converted to alkene.
Both atatements are true, so the answer is `(a)`.
