“…With tetrahydrofuran as the solvent and one equivalent of ethylene bromide as the entrainer, the yield of the Grignard compound is essentially quantitative [142]. It reacts normally with acid [113,140,142], carbon dioxide [140,142], acetaldehyde [141], iodine [142], iodobenzene [142], mercuric chloride [142], cadmium chloride [142], and various chlorosilanes, for example chlorotrimethylsilane [142]. Trichloro-2-thienylt Metal derivatives of polychlorothiophens are discussed also in Chapter 3;…”
