Phenylmagnesium chloride

Description:
Phenylmagnesium chloride, with the CAS number 100-59-4, is an organomagnesium compound classified as a Grignard reagent. It is typically a white to light yellow solid that is highly reactive, particularly with water and moisture, forming phenyl and magnesium hydroxide. This compound is characterized by its ability to act as a nucleophile, making it valuable in organic synthesis for forming carbon-carbon bonds. It is commonly used in the preparation of various organic compounds, including alcohols, by reacting with carbonyl compounds. Phenylmagnesium chloride is soluble in ether and other non-polar solvents, but it must be handled under an inert atmosphere to prevent decomposition. Its reactivity also extends to electrophiles, allowing it to participate in a range of reactions, including coupling and substitution. Due to its highly reactive nature, safety precautions are essential when handling this reagent, as it can ignite in the presence of moisture or air.
