Application | methyl magnesium bromide is an organometallic compound that can be used as a Grignard reagent. |
preparation method | dimethyl mercury is prepared by reacting methyl magnesium bromide or methyl lithium with mercury chloride in tetrahydrofuran or diethyl ether. |
Grignard reagent | The Grignard reagent is generally used in the form of a solution, typically appearing as a light gray to light brown transparent solution. They generally exist in the intermediate state of alkyl magnesium halides (RMgX) and dialkyl magnesium (R2Mg) and are an equilibrium mixture with complex components (referred to as "Schlenk equilibrium"). Some of these species may precipitate due to reduced solubility, but this does not affect their practical use. When the precipitate appears, use it after gently shaking the bottle so that the suspension is well dispersed (if the amount of the precipitate is very small, you can use the supernatant of the suspension). Especially in cold conditions such as winter, a large amount of precipitates may often be generated. In this case, use a dry glass rod after crushing. In addition, you can also put the bottle into a plastic bag and immerse it in a water bath at 40 ° C to dissolve the solid (heating requires a professional to operate, in case of safety hazards, note the evaporation of the organic solvent when the bottle is opened). |
