Compound ''
- A

- B

- Correct answerC

- D

Solution
In the first step the given alkyl halide that is 2-bromo-3-methyl butane reacts with Mg in presence of dry ether to form a grignard reagent,This grignard reagent reacts with to form a hydrocarbon (B)which has a chiral carbon.
In the reaction with grignard reagent behaves as a strong base.
Hence, the correct answer is option: 'C'.
