physical properties | magnesium dimetallocene is a white crystal with a melting point of 176 ℃. Sublimation at 100 ℃. Sensitive to air, humidity, carbon dioxide and carbon disulfide, solid crystals are exposed to fire in the air. Soluble in ether, tetrahydrofuran, benzene, xylene. A tan. Intense hydrolysis. |
Use | Magnesium diocene is a very useful reagent for introducing cyclopentadienyl groups into transition metals. |
Preparation | Ethyl magnesium bromide reacts with benzene and ether to remove ethane to obtain magnesium bromide (C5H5MgBr), two molecules The latter can shrink one molecule of magnesium bromide at 220°C and 10-2Pa to obtain magnesium dimetallocene. The reaction of metallic magnesium and isoprene at 500 ℃ can also remove H2 to obtain dimetallocene. |
store | magnesium dimetallocene can be sealed and stored dry. |
