(a)
$\displaystyle \mathrm{CH}_{3} \mathrm{CN}$ to
(b)
to

Marking-scheme solution
(a)
$$\mathrm{CH_3CN} \xrightarrow[\text{Dry ether}]{\mathrm{CH_3MgBr}} \mathrm{CH_3 - \underset{\underset{CH_3}{|}}{C} = NMgBr} \xrightarrow[\mathrm{H^+}]{\mathrm{H_2O}} \mathrm{CH_3 - \underset{\underset{CH_3}{|}}{C} = O}$$
(b)
