Alkyl halides, vinyl halides, and aryl
halides can all be used to form
organolithium and organomagnesium
compounds
However, these organometallic
compounds cannot be prepared from
compounds containing acidic groups
(OH, NH2, NHR, SH, C=CH, CO2H)
Cannot use H2O, CH3OH, CH3CH2OH,
etc. as solvents
Cannot prepare from substances such
as HOCH2CH2Br, etc.
Synthesis of Alcohols
Grignard or Organolithium Reagents
Organolithium reagents react with
carbonyls in the same
general way that Grignard reagents do.
Grignard Reagents
•
Direct formation of a Grignard reagent, involves
an alkyl halide reacted with Mg metal.
Indirect Grignard Reagents
Grignard Reagents can be prepared from other
Grignard Reagents (trans-metallation)
Indirect Grignard Reagents
α-acetylenic Grignard Reagents are prepared by an
acid-base Grignard reaction

Grignard Reactions
•
A Grignard reagent, RMgX, is a very strong base
and a good nucleophile; water/moisture MUST be
avoided in its reaction.
Question
If water can’t be used as a solvent, can other
protic solvents be used instead?
Yes (A) / No (B)
Example
