Passage–3
Complicated alcohols that cannot be obtained from the market are often synthesized in the lab
with a Grignard reagent. The Grignard reagent is made by reacting metallic magnesium with an
organic halide.Many types of organic halides may be used, including primary, secondary and ter-
tiary alkyl halides and aromatic halides. However, the reagent is a very powerful base and it is
impossible to prepare it from a compound having a hydrogen more acidic than an alkene. The halide
may be a chloride, bromide, or iodide but chlorine based reagents require a special solvent.
The basic formula of a Grignard reagent is RMgX. The magnesium-carbon bond is covalent but
extremely polar making the Grignard reagent a strong nucleophile. It is this characteristic of the
reagent that is used in the synthesis of alcohols.
