Description

2-Tolylmagnesium chloride is a Grignard reagent that can be used in the synthesis of organic compounds. It reacts with an acyl halide to form an organomagnesium compound. This reaction proceeds by nucleophilic substitution, which means that the magnesium replaces the halide on the acyl halide. The 2-tolylmagnesium chloride 1M solution in THF is used to synthesize monomers, which are molecules that are capable of linking together to form polymers. 2-Tolylmagnesium chloride 1M solution in THF is also used in cross-coupling reactions, which involve a metal acting as an electrophile and a metal complex acting as a nucleophile. This reaction is catalyzed by palladium complexes and can be used for asymmetric synthesis of chiral compounds.
