Concept introduction:
Grignard reagent is an organometallic compound. In Grignard reagent, the magnesium metal is directly attached to the carbon atom. Therefore, the carbon atom behaves as anion. Therefore, the properties of the Grignard reagent are almost same as the carbanions.

Jo Han Sow La NaOH, THF O Nat H3O+ OH NaOH, THF The mechanism involves the following 5 steps: -ō cyclopropanone intermediate 1. Abstraction of a proton to form enolate anion 1; 2. Formation of a cyclopropanone intermediate 2 with expulsion of chloride ion; 3. Addition of hydroxide ion to form tetrahedral intermediate 3; 4. Collapse of the tetrahedral intermediate and breakage of the three-membered ring to form carbanion intermediate 4; 5. Proton transfer to form the rearranged carboxylic acid.
