chemistry was always the point of interest of mine, I wanted to do some organic synthesis, I was searching in the web for "friendly" route to
synthesis Benzyl Dimethyl Carbinol (CAS 100-86-7).
I can buy it in China, but price for the delivery is ridiculous and concern about quality.
I want to do it by myself, not only because of price, but curiosity.

just do a grignard reaction between benzyl bromide and acetonefusso - 6-10-2018 at 07:58
I think this could be a candidate for the tert alcohol catalyst in making Na.

I was thinking about following:
C7H7Cl + Mg + Et2O(Anh) + C3H6O(Anh) + NH4Cl and dry it over K2CO3.
Any suggestion? Tsjerk - 6-10-2018 at 11:30
I would call a grignard "friendly" quite the opposite EvlRenne - 6-10-2018 at 12:29
Why you want a "friendly" synthesis? How do you define friendly?
Friendly - synthesis which is not require some high-end lab equipment, very complicated steps with special conditions (like hight pressure, hight
temp. and so on), and working with dangerous, but not deadly chemicals.fusso - 6-10-2018 at 12:46
