What is Magnesium Powder? It is a fine powdered version of the elemental metal Magnesium, molecular formula Mg, primarily used in chemical reactions due to their high surface area and reactivity.
Consistent Quality: We provide only high-quality Magnesium Powder, ensuring reliable and consistent performance for all applications.
Shipped from Manchester, UK Facility: Sourced and packaged in non-toxic, chemical-resistant containers to ensure safe handling and preserve product quality during transport.
Grignard Reagents
Magnesium is a key component in the synthesis of Grignard reagents, which are essential for creating carbon-carbon bonds in organic synthesis.
Catalysis
Magnesium can catalyse various chemical reactions, such as the O-acylative cleavage of tetrahydrofuran, where they react with acyl chlorides in the presence of dry tetrahydrofuran to produce 4-chlorobutyl esters.
Reducing Agent
In some chemical processes, magnesium acts as a reducing agent, facilitating reactions by donating electrons.
Pyrotechnics
The high combustion temperature of magnesium makes it useful in pyrotechnic applications like flares and fireworks.
