Application

Phenylmagnesium chloride (PhMgCl) solution is a common Grignard reagent used in the synthesis of (−)-phenserine and stephacidin B. It is employed in a variety of cross-coupling reactions. It can also be used as an electrolyte solution along with aluminium chloride (AlCl3) in the rechargeable magnesium batteries.

Other Notes

Storage below 25°C may cause formation of crystalline magnesium salts. Moving container to a warm location and occasional gentle swirling should redissolve the solid
