Grignard reaction

• Named after French chemist Victor Grignard

• Involves the reaction of an organomagnesium compound with a carbonyl compound

• Forms a new carbon-carbon bond

• Used in the synthesis of various organic compounds

• Example: Grignard reaction between phenylmagnesium bromide and formaldehyde to form benzoic acid

The density difference between ethyl acetate, water, and DCM varies due to their different molecular weights and intermolecular forces.

• Ethyl acetate has a lower density than water and DCM due to its lower molecular weight.

• DCM has a higher density than water and ethyl acetate due to its higher molecular weight.

• The intermolecular forces between the molecules also affect the density difference.

• For example, hydrogen bondin...read more
