Prepartion of magnesium bromide diethyl etherate solution

Once I was going to make a MgBr2-OEt2 1M solution in Ether.
When the ether was added into MgBr2-OEt2 powder, two layers of liquid was resulted.

Turned out the button layer contains MgBr2 at 39%wt. the top layer contains 3%wt.
addition of some benzene can increase the solubility and make a clear solution.

note:
In a preparation, 1.5 M clear solution was made using 27 ml of Et2O and 4 mL of benzene at 25 C.
