Suggestions for PrMgBr

[edit]

A great source of references for procedures is Org Syn.: free, online, top quality, and meets WP:SECONDARY (super-important goal for references). doi 10.15227/orgsyn.006.0054 gives generic alkylmag bromide prep. Your draft redlinks to isopropylmagnesium bromide. "No one" uses that. The dominant reagent is isopropylmagnesium chloride (cheaper, better equiv wt) as can be confirmed by Org. Syn. also.--Smokefoot (talk) 22:24, 5 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, I've mostly seen iPrMgCl as as the isopropyl equivalent in my own reading, but I'm not quite confident in understanding which Grignards use Cl vs Br predominantly; is it a question of the carbon-halogen bond strength during synthesis? Intuitively that would suggest that -MgCl Grignards are more energy-intensive to produce than -MgBr, but I'm sure there's factors in the finer details that I'm completely oblivious to. Either way, it's one of those things where my sense of "notability" wasn't sure which one to do; thanks for the tip. I've rephrased it to instead link to the chloride, as I think some note of (minimal) isomerism is still "worth having". Fishsicles (talk) 01:38, 6 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
well everyone would use chlorides if they could because chlorides are way, way cheaper than bromides. Anyway, iPrMgCl is a commercial transmetalation reagent. Use a Grignard to make a Grignard. You do what you want, but iPrMgCl is more notable as you can verify by Googling or CAS search. Best wishes, --Smokefoot (talk) 02:34, 6 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Your article Sodium tetrapropylborate has been made into an article now by Graeme Bartlett and thus, your sandbox is now completely redundant. Thus i am telling you to completely blank and remove all the contents of your sandbox now and make it an empty sandbox and also remove all corruption it now itself. 117.196.145.52 (talk) 12:09, 6 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The sandbox was the original version of the draft; I hadn't blanked because I wasn't starting on anything new recently, and assumed that since it was my sandbox, nobody else would really be paying attention to it?
I wasn't aware users could submit other users' sandboxes. Fishsicles (talk) 11:46, 7 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I just got notifications about this again. It has been several months. You are block evading just to tell me to blank my sandbox, a page which should be no one's business but mine unless I'm actively submitting a draft, and moreover has already been blanked and repurposed for another draft and has been for - I reiterate - months. Please think about your priorities. Fishsicles (talk) 14:32, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Cupronickel, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Old Nick.

I have sent you a note about a page you started

[edit]

Hi Fishsicles. Thank you for your work on Titanosilicate. Another editor, Ldm1954, has reviewed it as part of new pages patrol and left the following comment:

I think you need to include the term "Titanium silicate" as that (e.g. TS-1) seems to be a common alternative. Miriam Webster also has silicotitanate.

To reply, leave a comment here and begin it with {{Re|Ldm1954}}. (Message delivered via the Page Curation tool, on behalf of the reviewer.)

Could use some help

[edit]

Hi. You were kind enough to help out on Tsugaruite. If you don't mind, could you help me out a bit again? I'm working on a respected Thai woman chemist, Pramuan Tangboriboonrat, at User:MisawaSakura/Sandbox2. In the "research work" section the second and third paragraphs are hitting big in Earwig's tool. The second paragraph is just a list of positions she's held so I think it's ok. But the third paragraph, that talks about her work with rubber, etc, is too technical for me to dumb down and reword and I think too technical for the average reader. Could you work on this as you see appropriate? Feel free to edit the sandbox directly. If you're not interested, that's ok. Thanks for the time and consideration. MisawaSakura (talk) 22:33, 8 November 2025 (UTC)...I've asked at Wikipedia:WikiProject Women in Red too. MisawaSakura (talk) 23:30, 9 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not usually inclined to do WP:BLP edits- generally if something is the work of a specific researcher, it fails my notability criteria unless it's something that wins major international awards. (And frankly, even that's not always enough. This means you, spherical cow material.) I only have so much JSTOR access and am more focused on things than people from an encyclopaedia perspective. Fishsicles (talk) 14:07, 10 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
OK, that's fine. thanks for responding. I'll do what I can with it.MisawaSakura (talk) 14:32, 10 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Since it looks like she's won a national level prize, that should satisfy NPROF at least. I would caution against summarizing the science outside of details directly taken from secondary sources (like prize descriptions). Better a stub than an inaccurate representation of the science. Fishsicles (talk) 14:56, 10 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I just cut most of that third paragraph, ie, a skeleton summary. MisawaSakura (talk) 16:22, 10 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
