The organomagnesium compounds are exemplified by the compounds represented by the general formulae: RMgX, R2 Mg and RMg(OR), in which R is an organic radical having 1 to 20 carbon atoms and X is a halogen atom, and their ether complexes, and other compounds which are prepared by modifying the above organomagnesium compounds with other organometallic compounds such as organosodium, organolithium, o
