Question

How do you explain Grignard reagents?

Answer 1

See this [old answer.](https://socratic.org/questions/what-are-grignard-reactions#305964)

Explanation:

There is not too much to explain. Grignards are organometallic reagents that can usually be prepared fairly straightforwardly, and can be deployed to form `C-C` bonds, which is a prized reaction in organic chemistry.
