Question
Chapter 17.15B, Problem 17.35P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation: The ratio of the products in the reaction of chlorine with ethylbenzene if chlorine randomly abstracted a methyl or methylene hydrogen and the reactivity ratio for the benzylic hydrogen as compared to the methyl hydrogen are to be predicted.
Concept introduction: The reaction that includes the addition of one or more than one chlorine atoms in a compound is known as chlorination reaction. Chlorination reaction is a type of halogenation reaction.
To determine: The ratio of the products in the reaction of chlorine with ethylbenzene if chlorine randomly abstracted a methyl or methylene hydrogen and the reactivity ratio for the benzylic hydrogen as compared to the methyl hydrogen.

The Grignard reaction involves preparation and reaction of a very nucleophilic organo-magnesium compound.

The Grignard reagent must be prepared under strict anhydrous conditions (dry glassware, dry solvent). The volative solvent, diethyl ether, helps to prevent oxygen or carbon dioxide from entering the reaction vessel. Reaction of bromobenzene with magnesium in ether produces phenylmagnesium bromide.
