2-butanone is converted into 3-methyl-3-hexanol using a grignard reagent prepared from 1-bromopropane and magnesium metal in thf solution. list the procedural steps required to collect the alcohol product by microdistillation.

Here's what I get.

Explanation:

At the end of the reaction you will have a solution of the alcohol in THF.

The microdistillation procedure will vary, depending on the specific apparatus you are using, but here is a typical procedure.

Transfer the solution to a conical vial. Add a boiling stone. Attach a Hickman head (shown below) and condenser. Place the assembly in in the appropriate hole of an aluminium block on top of a hotplate stirrer. Begin stirring and heating at a low level so the THF (bp 63 °C) can distill slowly. Use a Pasteur pipet to withdraw the THF as needed. When all the THF has been removed, raise the temperature of the Al block and distill the alcohol (bp 143 °C).
