Abstract
Two pathways of the reactions of methylmagnesium bromide with 1-chloro- and 1-bromo-3-methoxymethyl-1-propynes were simulated by the MNDO quantum-chemical method. The calculations predict initial coordination of magnesium to the Cβ atom of the triple bond, which determines predominant nucleophilic substitution of the halogen atom according to the addition-elimination pattern.
