Description and Uses
Electrochemically inactive [Mg2(μ-Cl)3.6THF][C2H5AlCl3] crystal may be obtained from an electrolyte composed of Di-n-butylmagnesium and ethylaluminum dichloride. Di-n-butylmagnesium may be used in the carbon metallation of α-olefins. A study reports the possible use of the organometallic compound in the intercalation of magnesium and zinc into the layers of TiS2 or WO2Cl2. Interaction of lithium alkoxide with di-n-butylmagnesium was investigated.
