CAS 32916-51-1: Cyclopentylmagnesium chloride
Description:Cyclopentylmagnesium chloride is an organomagnesium compound, specifically a Grignard reagent, characterized by its cyclopentyl group attached to a magnesium atom, which is also bonded to a chloride ion. This compound typically appears as a colorless to light yellow liquid or solid, depending on its form and purity. It is highly reactive, particularly with water and moisture, leading to the release of hydrocarbons and the formation of magnesium hydroxide. Cyclopentylmagnesium chloride is commonly used in organic synthesis for the formation of carbon-carbon bonds, enabling the creation of various organic compounds through nucleophilic addition reactions. Its reactivity makes it a valuable reagent in the preparation of alcohols, ketones, and other functional groups. Due to its sensitivity to air and moisture, it must be handled under an inert atmosphere, often in a glovebox or using Schlenk techniques. Safety precautions are essential when working with this compound, as it can be flammable and poses hazards upon contact with skin or eyes.
