Abstract
A series of phenylmagnesium bromides with intramolecularly coordinating substitents CH 2 -(OCH 2 CH 2 ) n OCH 3 at one [n=0-4] or both [n=1,2] ortho positions has been investigated. The pure Grignard reagents were obtained from the exchange reaction of corresponding arylmercury bromides with magnesium, since their synthesis from analogous bromides and magnesium was accompanied by extensive ether cleavage in the substituents if n>1
