Concept introduction:
To form a bond between two carbons of like charge, a separate reaction that first reverses the charge (or polarity) at one of the carbons is carried out. Thus, one carbon atom would become electron rich while the other would remain electron poor. This general idea of reversing a charge at a particular atom is called umpolung. In the

Explanation of Solution
The given reaction is,
In the above reaction, the C atom of the C-Br bond is electron-poor. When the C-Br bond is bonded to the metal, the carbon will become electron-rich. An alkyllithium reagent (RLi) can be synthesized from an alkyl bromide by treating it with solid lithium in ether.

Thus, one carbon atom would become electron rich while the other would remain electron poor. This general idea of reversing a charge at a particular atom is called umpolung. In the alkyl halide reactant, the C atom bonded to the halogen atom bears a partial positive charge and is relatively electron poor. By contrast, that C atom has to become electron rich in the organometallic compound produced. An alkyl bromide can be converted to a Grignard reagent (RMgBr) simply by treating it with solid magnesium in an ether solvent such as tetrahydrofuran (THF).
