Bromobenzene → HCID 13298046, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

First a Grignard complex is prepared under dry conditions by allowing 3.6 g of magnesium turnings in 25 ml of dry tetrahydrofuran to react with 23.6 g of bromobenzene in 50 ml of dry tetrahydrofuran. Then the evaporation residue obtained in step (a) in 75 ml of dry tetrahydrofuran is added. The reaction mixture is refluxed for 2 h. The cooled mixture is poured into a saturated solution of ammonium chloride. After shaking, the organic layer is separated. The extraction is repeated with ether. Then the organic layers are combined and dried over sodium sulfate. Finally the solvent is evaporated.
