Given the following reaction of an organometallic compound with an ester, select the correct option:

If excess methyl lithium is used, a chiral tertiary alcohol is formed.
If one equivalent of methyl lithium is used, benzophenone is obtained as a product.
The formation of lithium ethoxide occurs in one of the steps, because the alkoxide anion is a suitable leaving group in this reaction.
The reaction can be carried out in methanol as a solvent.
