FSc Chemistry Book2, CH 13, LEC 4: From Grignard Reagents

This video lecture from Carboxylic Acids (F.Sc. second year Chemistry) covers the preparation of carboxylic acids from Grignard reagents. The alkyl chain on the magnesium atom acts as a nucleophile and attacks an aldehyde in a Nucleophilic addition reaction forming an alcohol. The alcohol can then be oxidized to carboxylic acid as discussed previously. A simple single carbon alkane can be turned into a carboxylic acid of any desired chain length using this mechanism.
