Continuous synthesis of organomagnesium compounds by the reaction of magnesium with haloalkanes RX (R = Et, n-Bu, n-Oct, c-Hex, Ph; X = Cl, Br) in a stirred column-type apparatus was studied. The effects of the solvent, solvating solvent to RX molar ratio, and temperature in the reaction zone on the RX conversion and yield of organomagnesium compounds was examined.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
