S. Nordschild, D. Wohlgemuth and M. Bolte

Abstract: In the title Grignard reagent, [MgBr(C₁₂H₉)(C₅H₁₀O)₂], the Mg centre adopts a distorted tetrahedral MgCO₂Br arrangement. The dihedral angle between the two aromatic rings of the biphenyl residue is 44.00 (14)°. Each molecule incorporates one R- and one S-configured 2-methyltetrahydrofuran molecule.
