Organometallic Compounds introduces compounds containing direct bonds between carbon and metal atoms. Students learn about organolithium, organocopper and organocadmium compounds, with particular emphasis on Grignard reagents. Their preparation and reactions with water, carbonyl compounds, carbon dioxide, nitriles, esters and acid chlorides are covered.

This page covers Organometallic Compounds, chapter 18 of 22 in the Class 12 Chemistry syllabus set by the National Examination Board (NEB). 2 important questions for this chapter are available, each with a full solution.

For numerical and derivation-based chapters like this one, working through past NEB questions is usually more useful than re-reading notes alone — try solving each important question above before checking the solution, then compare your working step by step.
