Abstract
Preparative Methods:widely commercially available in forms (most commonly turnings and powders) and in purity (9899.95%) suitable for many applications in organic synthesis. For some applications magnesium powder or activated magnesium is freshly prepared via the reduction of a magnesium(II) salt or the evaporative deposition of magnesium metal. The commercially available magnesiumanthracene adduct [86901-19-1] also provides a highly reactive form of magnesium metal.
