(3 pts) The use of Grignard reagents requires scrupulously dry aprotic solvents such as diethyl ether or tetrahydrofuran. Please explain why the solvents need to be scrupulously dry. To support your reason, show...
5. Consider the following solvents for potential use in a Grignard reaction. a) Acetone b) Methanol c) Tetrahydrofuran For each solvent, indicate (yes or no) whether or not the solvent will be suitable for use in a Grignard reaction. If yes, explain why. If no, explain why not, and draw a balanced reaction scheme for the side reaction (NOT the desired reaction) that will likely occur instead

i need help with the prelab questions please Grignard reagent THE GRIGNARD REAGENT-PREPARATION AND REACTION In this experiment, you will prepare a Grignard reagent, phenyl magnesium bromide, from bromobenzene and magnesium metal. The Grignard reagent will then react with methyl benzoate to form triphenylmethanol. Introduction Grignard reagents, such as organomagnesium halides, were discovered in 1910 by French chemist Victor Grignard. The Grignard reaction is one of the most general methods for carbon- carbon bond formation in all of organic chemistry....
Briefly, explain why your 3.0 mL reaction vial and diethyl ether solvent need to be completely dry (free of water)? Support your argument with a reaction equation between your Grignard reagent and water. What does the water do to the phenyl magnesium bromide? Briefly, explain why 3 M HCI (aq.) = [H_3O^+/CI-] hydrochloric acid used instead of a base for the work-up procedure? What did you observe when a low pH was obtained? What was the purpose of NaHSO_3 (sodium...
