Methylzinc bromide

The combination of equimolar amounts of tris(trimethylsilyl)methyllithium and zinc bromide in a THF/diethyl ether mixture, Scheme 27, furnished tris(trimethylsilyl)methylzinc bromide, as a lithium bromide/ether adduct.43 The compound, which may also be formulated as a lithium alkyldibromozincate, showed no ligand redistribution reactions. It is monomeric in solution and can be treated with 1 equiv. of an organolithium reagent to afford heteroleptic diorganozinc compounds. 

Contact with RmMX (R is methyl, ethyl M is aluminium, zinc X is bromide, iodide) causes ignition. Diethylaluminium bromide, dimethylaluminium bromide, ethylaluminium bromide iodide, methylzinc iodide and methylaluminium diiodide are claimed as specially effective.

The reaction of bis(dichloromethyl)zinc with mercuric chloride gives bis(dichloromethyl)mercury in 93% yield 262). The reaction of iodo-methylzinc iodide or bromomethylzinc bromide in tetrahydrofuran with an appropriate metal or organometallic halide was used in the preparation of (CH3)3SnCH2l, (CH3)3SnCH2Br, (CH3)2Sn(CH2l)2, (CHa) -... 

NITROCARBOL (75-52-5) Forms explosive mixture with air (flash point 95°F/35°C). Thermally unstable. Shock, friction, pressure, or elevated temperature above 599°F/315°C can cause explosive decomposition, especially if confined. Violent reaction with strong oxidizers, alkyl metal halides, diethylaluminum bromide, formic acid, methylzinc iodide. Contact with acids, bases, acetone, aluminum powder, amines, bis(2-aminoethyl)amine, haolforms make this material more sensitive to explosion. Reacts, possibly violently, with ammonium hydroxide, calcium hydroxide, calcium hypochlorite, 1,2-diaminomethane, formaldehyde, hexamethylbenzene, hydrocarbons, hydroxides, lithium perchlorite, m-methyl aniline, nickel peroxide, nitric acid, metal oxides, potassium hydride, potassium hydroxide, sodium hydride. Mixtures with ammonia, aniline, diethylenetriamine, metal oxides, methyl amine, morpholine, phosphoric acid, silver nitrate form shock-sensitive compounds. Forms high-explosive compound with urea perchlorate. Mixtures with hydrocarbons and other combustible materials can cause fire and explosions. Attacks some plastics, rubber, and coatings.
