PHENYLMAGNESIUM CHLORIDE Usage And Synthesis

Chemical Properties

yellowish-brown to dark brown solution

Uses

Grignard reagent in greener solvent, 2-methyltetrahydrofuran (2-MeTHF)

2-Methyltetrahydrofuran (2-MeTHF): A Biomass-Derived Solvent with Broad Application in Organic Chemistry

Uses

In organic synthesis, especially in the production of hydrocarbons, alcohols, ketones, organic acids, amines, silicones, boranes.

Uses

Phenylmagnesium chloride (PhMgCl) solution is a common Grignard reagent used in the synthesis of ()-phenserine and stephacidin B. It is employed in a variety of cross-coupling reactions. It can also be used as an electrolyte solution along with aluminium chloride (AlCl₃) in the rechargeable magnesium batteries.

Definition

ChEBI: Phenylmagnesium chloride is an arylmagnesium halide.
