Dimethylzinc History

This substance was first prepared by Edward Frankland during his work with Robert Bunsen in 1849 at the University of Marburg. After heating a mixture of zinc and methyl iodide in an airtight vessel a flame bursted out after the seal was broken In laboratory scale the synthesis method did not change till today, except that copper or copper compounds are used to activate the zinc.
Dimethyl zinc was used for a long time to introduce methyl groups into organic molecules or to synthesis organometalic compounds containing methyl groups. The Grignard reagents, a magnesium organic compound, which is easier to handle and less imflamable substituted zinc methyl in most of the laboratory synthesis. There are, however, several reactions which proceed better or result in alternative products with the zinc organic compounds than with magnesium organic compounds.

Dimethylzinc Specification

The Zinc, dimethyl-, with the CAS registry number 544-97-8, is also known as Methylzinc. It belongs to the product categories of Dialkylzincs; Organometallic Reagents; Reike and Organozinc Reagents. Its EINECS number is 208-884-1. This chemical's molecular formula is C2H6Zn and molecular weight is 95.46. What's more, its systematic name is dimethylzinc. It is air and moisture sensitive. It has been of great importance in the synthesis of organic compounds. 

Preparation: this chemical can be prepared by the action of methyl iodide on a zinc at elevated temperature or on zinc sodium alloy.

3Zn + 2CH3I → Zn(CH3)2 + ZnI2

Uses of Zinc, dimethyl-: it can be used to produce 2,2,3,3-tetramethyl-butane  at the temperature of -50 - -20 °C. It will need reagent ZnCl2 and solvent CH2Cl2. The yield is about 80%.

Zinc, dimethyl- can be used to produce 2,2,3,3-tetramethyl-butane  at the temperature of -50 - -20 °C

When you are using this chemical, please be cautious about it as the following:
