Application

4-Methoxyphenylmagnesium bromide is a general Grignard reagent that can be used:
  • In the denickelation of porphyrins and to replace the metal center with magnesium.
  • To synthesize a tubulin polymerization inhibitor, 2-Amino-3,4,5-trimethoxybenzophenone.
  • In the total synthesis of (−)-centrolobine.
