Dibutyl ether is an ether that is used for complex grignard reactions where higher temperatures are needed. Dibutyl ether is good for reacting benzyl magnesium chloride (made from benzyl chloride and magnesium turnings in dibutyl ether) with acetonitrile in dibutyl ether at elevated temperatures. Then reacting it with hydrochloric acid to get Phenyl-2-Propanone. Dibutyl ether increases the yield compared to diethyl ether. Dibutyl ether is produced by reacting butanol with sulfuric acid. The temperature cannot be too high, as butanol could dehydrate into butene (1-butene). The ether must be stored with butylated hydroxytoluene as explosive peroxides can form.

I reacted benzyl magnesium chloride with acetonitrile in dibutyl ether and hydrolyzed it with hydrochloric acid to get Phenyl-2-Propanone.
When you have to pee in a movie but don’t want to miss anything, and must do the following mental equation: will the amount I have to pee cause enough discomfort to diminish my attention capacity for the remainder of the movie to an extent which is greater than the amount of the movie I would miss by making a mad dash to the restroom.
I saw Satantango last night, wonderful film but by the 5th hour I had to start doing pee calculus.
