Butylmagnesium chloride

Description:
Butylmagnesium chloride, with the CAS number 693-04-9, is an organomagnesium compound that belongs to the class of Grignard reagents. It is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its form and purity. This compound is highly reactive, particularly with water and moisture, leading to the release of flammable hydrocarbons and the formation of magnesium hydroxide. Butylmagnesium chloride is commonly used in organic synthesis as a nucleophile, facilitating the formation of carbon-carbon bonds by reacting with various electrophiles. Its reactivity makes it valuable 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 reagent, as it can pose hazards such as flammability and toxicity. Overall, butylmagnesium chloride is a crucial reagent in synthetic organic chemistry, enabling the construction of complex molecular architectures.
