Abstract:The first half of this review features alkali metal-containing organometallics. Sub-categorization is primarily according to the organic anion component and, cases of extreme interest notwithstanding, discussion is limited to compounds that contain at least one carbon-alkali metal interaction. Each section opens up with a summary of recent synthetic and mechanistic advances. The emphasis of the article is, however, structural and, thereafter, discussion is arranged according to the analytical method employed f… Show more
