Question

Ether are used as solvents explain

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

Ether is an especially good solvent for the formation of gringard reactants. The gringard carbon is highly basic and reacts with acidic protons of solvents like water to form an alkane. Ether has no acidic protons, so gringard reagents are stable in ether. This is why ether is used as a solvent.
