C₆H₅CH₂Br + Mg → C₆H₅CH₂MgBr
This reaction is a type of formation of Grignard's reagent (R-Mg-X), which in this case is C₆H₅CH₂MgBr (Benzyl Magnesium bromide)
C₆H₅CH₂MgBr + H₃O⁺ → C₆H₅CH₃ + Mg(OH)Br
The final product obtained after reaction with H₃O⁺ is C₆H₅CH₃ (Toluene/Methyl Benzene)
Hope it helps!
