CAS 676-58-4: Methylmagnesium chloride
Description:Methylmagnesium chloride, with the CAS number 676-58-4, is an organomagnesium compound classified as a Grignard reagent. It is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid that is highly reactive, particularly with water and moisture, forming methane and magnesium hydroxide upon contact. This compound is characterized by its strong nucleophilic properties, making it valuable in organic synthesis for forming carbon-carbon bonds. Methylmagnesium chloride is often used to prepare various organic compounds, including alcohols and hydrocarbons, through nucleophilic addition to carbonyl compounds. It is important to handle this reagent under an inert atmosphere, such as nitrogen or argon, to prevent decomposition and unwanted reactions with atmospheric moisture. Additionally, it is typically stored in tightly sealed containers to maintain its reactivity and prevent degradation. Due to its reactivity, safety precautions are essential when working with this compound, as it can pose hazards such as flammability and toxicity.
