Alkyl halide reacts with Mg in presence of dry ether to give alkyl magnesium halide which is also called as Grignard reagent. This reaction is also called as Grignard’s reaction.
$R-X+M g \xrightarrow[\text { ether }]{\text { dry }} \underset{\text { Grignard's reagent }}{R-M g}$
$R-X+M g \xrightarrow[\text { ether }]{\text { dry }} \underset{\text { Grignard's reagent }}{R-M g}$
