First we need to treat this cyclohexane with Cl2 in light and formed chlorocyclohexane by free radical mechanism. When this chlorocyclohexane is reacted with base like NaOH then there is SN2 reaction and formed cyclohexanol. When this cyclohexanol treated with chromic acid in acid there is oxidation and formed cyclohexanone. When this cyclohexanone reacted with Grignard reagent in acid there is formed 1-propylcyclohexanol
