  2. MgCu2 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MgCu2

    MgCu 2 can be prepared by hydrogenation of Mg 2 Cu or the reaction of magnesium hydride and metallic copper at elevated temperature and pressure: [3] 2 Mg 2 Cu + 3 H 2 → 3 MgH 2 + MgCu 2 MgH 2 + 2 Cu → MgCu 2 + H 2. MgCu 2 can also be prepared by reacting of stoichiometric amounts of metals at about 380 °C in the presence of excess copper. [4]

    Organocopper complexes in particular react sluggishly in the absence of a Lewis acid. Although magnesium bromide generated in situ from the reaction of Grignard reagents and copper(I) halides can serve this role (see above), external Lewis acids are also useful. In the presence of boron trifluoride etherate, organocopper complexes are able to ...

    Magnesium, aluminium and zinc can react with water, ... Copper and silver will react with nitric acid; but because nitric acid is an oxidizing acid, ...

  5. Thermite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermite

    Magnesium ignition remains popular among amateur thermite users, mainly because it can be easily obtained, [17] but a piece of the burning strip can fall off into the mixture, resulting in premature ignition. [citation needed] The reaction between potassium permanganate and glycerol or ethylene glycol is used as an alternative to the magnesium ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Organocopper_chemistry

    Lithium diphenylcuprate etherate dimer from crystal structure Skeletal formula of lithium diphenylcuprate etherate dimer. Organocopper chemistry is the study of the physical properties, reactions, and synthesis of organocopper compounds, which are organometallic compounds containing a carbon to copper chemical bond.

  7. Galvanic corrosion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Galvanic_corrosion

    The electropotential difference between the reactions at the two electrodes is the driving force for an accelerated attack on the anode metal, which dissolves into the electrolyte. This leads to the metal at the anode corroding more quickly than it otherwise would and corrosion at the cathode being inhibited.

  8. Evolution of metal ions in biological systems - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evolution_of_Metal_Ions_in...

    Magnesium also has many functions in prokaryotes such as glycolysis, all kinases, NTP reaction, signalling, DNA/RNA structures and light capture. In aerobic eukaryotes, magnesium can be found in cytoplasm and chloroplasts. The reactions in these cell compartments are glycolysis, photophosphorylation and carbon assimilation.

  9. Grignard reagent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grignard_reagent

    Grignard reagents react with 1,4-dioxane to give the diorganomagnesium compounds and insoluble coordination polymer MgX 2 (dioxane) 2 and (R = organic group, X = halide): 2 RMgX + dioxane ⇌ R 2 Mg + MgX 2 (dioxane) 2. This reaction exploits the Schlenk equilibrium, driving it toward the right.
