Philippe Barbier
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Philippe A. Barbier (born 1848, died 1922)[1][2] was a French organic chemist. He is considered the father of organometallic chemistry having synthesized the first organomagnesium compound in 1899.[1][3] He is most famous for the Barbier reaction.
Barbier was Victor Grignard's supervisor during his PhD.[4] A method to prepare reactive Grignard reagents such as Allylic Magnesium halides is known as the Barbier method, where the Grignard reagent is made in situ with the other reagent.[4]
