Individual Reactions
(g) + CH3BrMg (solution) =
(solution) + Br2Mg (solution)
By formula: HBr (g) + CH3BrMg (solution) = CH4 (solution) + Br2Mg (solution)
| Quantity | Value | Units | Method | Reference | Comment |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| ΔrH° | -65.61 ± 0.53 | kcal/mol | RSC | Holm, 1981 | solvent: Diethyl ether; The enthalpy of formation was calculated using the assumptions and the auxiliary data in Holm, 1981, except for the organic compound, whose enthalpy of formation was quoted from Pedley, 1994 |
(cr) +
(l) = CH3BrMg (solution)
By formula: Mg (cr) + CH3Br (l) = CH3BrMg (solution)
| Quantity | Value | Units | Method | Reference | Comment |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| ΔrH° | -64.0 ± 1.1 | kcal/mol | RSC | Holm, 1981 | solvent: Diethyl ether; Due to the possibility of side reactions, the enthalpy of reaction was not considered to be sufficiently reliable for deriving the enthalpy of formation of the Grignard reagent Holm, 1981 |
C5H11BrMg (solution) + (solution) =
(solution) + CH3BrMg (solution)
By formula: C5H11BrMg (solution) + CH4 (solution) = C5H12 (solution) + CH3BrMg (solution)
| Quantity | Value | Units | Method | Reference | Comment |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| ΔrH° | -3.6 ± 1.0 | kcal/mol | RSC | Holm, 1983 | solvent: Diethyl ether |
