A graduate student ran the Grignard reaction shown in the following equation. The student was unaware that the flask that was used for the reaction was contaminated with some copper(I) salt. The product that was isolated had no absorption in the 3500 to 3200 cm-1 region of its IR spectrum but did have a strong absorption near 1715 cm-1. The 1H-NMR spectrum of the product is shown here. Suggest a structure for this compound.
