m-Tolylmagnesium chloride, 1M solution in THF, Fandachem - Introduction
m-Tolylmagnesium chloride(m-Tolylmagnesium chloride) is an organometallic compound. Its chemical formula is C7H7ClMg and its molecular weight is 166.41. m-tolyl magnesium chloride is produced by the reaction of magnesium chloride and m-tolyl bromide in an organic solvent such as diethyl ether or tetrahydrofuran.
m-tolyl magnesium chloride is one of the important reagents in organic synthesis. It can be used in the synthesis of phenyl magnesium reagents, and further used to generate other complex organic compounds. m-tolylmagnesium chloride also acts as a catalyst in the addition reaction of alkenes and alkynes.
However, m-tolyl magnesium chloride is a highly active reagent, which is highly corrosive and flammable. Take protective measures to avoid contact with skin and eyes, and keep away from heat and flame. It should be stored in a dry, well-ventilated place, away from oxidants and acids.
