Question

What are Grignard Reagents ? With examples​

Answer 1

One such example is the Grignard reagent, represented as R—Mg—X, which can be prepared from haloalkanes as well as from aryl halides. The oxygen atom of diethyl ether (or THF) forms a complex with the magnesium atom of the Grignard reagent. These reagents in ether solution are very usefUl in organic synthesis.
