Magnesium bromide diethyl etherate, 98%

Description

CAS: 29858-07-9 | C4H10Br2MgO | 258.24 g/mol

The magnesium bromide diethyl etherate (MgBr2· OEt2)-methyl sulfide (Me2S) system is useful for the mild and chemo-selective deprotection of p-methoxybenzyl (PMB) ether. Lewis acid for catalysis of Diels-Alder reactions of homochiral 2-sulfinylmaleates with cyclopentadiene. Magnesium bromide diethyl etherate is used in the synthesis of silicon-containing azole derivatives.

This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand.
