High-Purity Magnesocene for Organometallic Synthesis

Magnesocene, or Bis(cyclopentadienyl)magnesium, is a significant organometallic compound with the chemical formula Mg(C5H5)2. It presents itself as white crystalline solids, notable for their high melting point of 180°C and boiling point of 290°C. This compound is highly reactive, particularly sensitive to air, moisture, carbon dioxide, and carbon disulfide, with the potential to ignite upon exposure to air.

Introduction

Magnesocene is predominantly synthesized through two methods: the reaction of ethylmagnesium bromide with benzene and ether, followed by the removal of ethane to produce bromocyclopentadienylmagnesium, which then undergoes a high-temperature, low-pressure reaction to eliminate one molecule of magnesium bromide; or the direct reaction of metallic magnesium with isoprene at 500°C to dehydrogenate and form Magnesocene.

In the realm of chemistry, Magnesocene holds a pivotal role, especially as a reagent for introducing cyclopentadienyl groups into transition metals. It is also valued as a high-purity raw material in the semiconductor industry and contributes to the synthesis of intermediates for pharmaceuticals, pesticides, and dyes.

Given its hazardous nature, including flammability and violent reactions with water, stringent safety precautions are imperative during storage and transportation. Typically stored in stainless steel cylinders, Magnesocene is classified as a Class 4.2 dangerous chemical.

Key parameters for Magnesocene include:

  • Chemical Formula:‌ Mg(C5H5)2
  • Molecular Weight:‌ 154.49 g/mol
  • Appearance:‌ White crystalline solids
  • Melting Point:‌ 180°C
  • Boiling Point:‌ 290°C
  • Flash Point:‌ 290°C
  • Hazard Description:‌ Flammable, self-ignites in air, reacts violently with water
  • Hazard Class:‌ Class 4.2 Dangerous Chemical

Ensuring compliance with relevant safety regulations during the handling of Magnesocene is crucial to safeguard the well-being of operators and maintain operational integrity.
