Abstract

Abstract Calcium vapor (atom) when cocondensed with various solvents at 77 K was found to be very reactive toward alkyl and aryl halides. A series of organocalcium halides was prepared in good yields by addition of alkyl or aryl halides to the resultant calcium atom- solvent slurries at ambient temperatures.
