Okay, this appears to be the classic reaction of forming tri -fennel carbonyl, that is, via the following reaction, forming a grignard reagent, and then reacting this greenyard reagent with methylbenzoate, with two equivalents of grinyard reagent to form sort of the complex al -coxide.
01:17
Followed by a acidic workup to give the target product.
01:28
Okay.
01:29
So in this case, we need to recognize that we need two times as much of the grignard reagent as we do the methylbenzoate.
01:39
And so given that, in fact, the limiting reagent here, right, because we're talking, we've got magnesium, we've got bromobenzene, and we've got methylbenzoate.
01:59
The limiting reagent in which we have 1 .04 moles, right? oh, no, it is actually magnesium, right? i'm just trying to remind you to divide the number of millimoles of magnesium by two, right? because we need two equivalents of our green yard reagent, so this would, in fact, be 1 .05.
02:30
And for our bromobenzine would be 1 .30, sorry, 1 .305.
02:41
Okay, so then, in fact, our limiting reagent here is the methylbenzoate, right? so we should expect that we can make 1 .04 moles of our trifenyl carbonyl, right? which i'll call tpc.
03:04
Okay...
