Pickering, Miles; LaPrade, Joseph E. – Journal of Chemical Education, 1986
Describes a comparison of scale of laboratory with respect to time efficiency. Compared full scale and one-tenth scale Grignard reactions with full scale averaging 330 minutes to completion and scaled-down averaging 204. Savings are seen in air pollution, toxicity, solvent cost, and time. (JM)
