Answer:
Grignard reagents do form ketones
with acid chlorides but the reaction does not stop at this stage. Ketones further
take part in the reactions with Grignard reagents to give tertiary alcohols.
Therefore, dialkyl cadmium is used which reacts with only the acid chlorides
and not with ketones. For details, consult section 13.6.
