Methylmagnesium iodide is a potent organometallic reagent widely used in C-C bond formation. Synthesized via the reaction of methyl iodide with magnesium turnings, its molecular formula is CH₃MgI (CAS: 865-24-9).
Strictly store under inert atmosphere to prevent pyrophoric ignition. Requires dry, oxygen-free handling protocols due to extreme moisture sensitivity. Not for clinical use; industrial grade only.
