Options:

Answer:
B
Solution:

Grignard products after work-up: P ethanol, Q isopropanol, R tert-butanol, S isobutanol. All have water solubility (not necessarily miscibility). P/Q give iodoform. Primary P/S give Victor-Meyer red, secondary Q blue. Q/R/S boil above ethanol; P does not. All listed matches follow. Correct matching option: B.
