CAS 121905-60-0
:M-tolylmagnesium chloride
Description:
M-tolylmagnesium chloride, with the CAS number 121905-60-0, is a Grignard reagent, which is an organomagnesium compound commonly used in organic synthesis. It features a tolyl group (derived from toluene) bonded to a magnesium atom, which is also coordinated to a chloride ion. This compound is typically a colorless to light yellow solid and is highly reactive, particularly with water and protic solvents, leading to the release of toluene and the formation of magnesium hydroxide. M-tolylmagnesium chloride is utilized in various reactions, including nucleophilic additions to carbonyl compounds, enabling the formation of alcohols. Its reactivity necessitates careful handling under an inert atmosphere, such as nitrogen or argon, to prevent decomposition or unwanted side reactions. The compound is sensitive to moisture and air, making it essential to store it in a dry, sealed container. Overall, M-tolylmagnesium chloride is a valuable reagent in synthetic organic chemistry, facilitating the construction of complex molecular architectures.
