The Pharisees were not honestly seeking information from Yeshua about divorce. They were testing HIM, trying to catch him in some statement about a subject on which they themselves had no agreement and then use it against HIM.
The text from Deuteronomy does not explicitly set out grounds for divorce, Moses recognizes the reality of divorce, that it happens, and so he stipulates that a man who divorces his wife may not remarry her after she remarries. The primary purpose of the command was to protect the wife from arbitrary divorce. A man could not divorce his wife and then accuse her of adultery or claim her back after she remarried. Nor could he remarry her for financial gain if her new husband died.
