Correct answer
A. 3 - Hexanone
Step-by-step solution
Propene undergoes anti-markonikov's addtion with HBr in presence of peroxide to from 1-bromopropane. 1-bromopropane reacts with magnesium in presence of dry ether to form the grignard reagent propylmagnesium bromide. Propanal undergoes nucleophilic addition with propylmagnesium bromide to form hexan-3-ol which on oxidation with CrO 3 froms hexan-3-one
