2.) Supplemental problem: When benzonitrile (shown below on left) reacts with methyl Grignard followed by hydrolysis in aqueous acid, acetophenone is formed as a final product. Give a complete, stepwise mechanism for this process. (Hint: follow the guidance on the middle of page 937 in the Klein textbook) Mg. 1.) H3C 2.) H₂O¹/H₂O C=N Br
