Rather unstable and often prepared just before use in the lab in a completely dry solvent such as diethyl ether in the presence of nitrogen rather than air, its addition to carbon dioxide results in a carboxylic acid.
Although many organosilanes can be produced a thousand times more by alternative procecces, this is essential in the production of some specialty silanes. Rather unstable and often prepared just before use in the lab in a completely dry solvent such as diethyl ether in the presence of nitrogen rather than air, its addition to carbon dioxide results in a carboxylic acid. It won its discoverer the 1912 Nobel Prize in Chemistry and it is most commonly used in the lab to produce alcohols from carbonyls, producing secondary alcohols from aldehydes and tertiary alcohols from ketones. FTP, identify this reagent that includes a magnesium atom and a halide connected to an organic chain.
