Question

why does diethyl Ether behave as base

Answer 1

Polar compounds that can serve as hydrogen bond donors dissolve in diethyl ether because they can form hydrogen bonds to the nonbonding electron pairs of the ether oxygen atoms. Ethers are aprotic. Thus, basic substances, such as Grignard reagents, can be prepared in ether and tetrahydrofuran.
