NMR spectrocopy of organolithium compounds, part XXXIV: Cyclopropyllithium and lithium bromide (1:1) in diethylether/tetrahydrofuran—Identification of a fluxional mixed tetramer
Abstract:Cyclopropyllithium, C 3 H 5 Li (1), was studied in the presence of one equivalent lithium bromide (LiBr) in diethylether (DEE)/tetrahydrofuran (THF) mixtures and in THF as solvents. Increasing the THF concentration in DEE/THF leads in the 6 Li NMR spectrum to a main signal (S1) at δ0.85 (rel. to ext. LiBr/THF) and a second resonance (S2) at δ0.26 aside from a minor component at δ0.07.In pure THF, the ratio of these signals was 66: 28:6. 6 Li and 13 C NMR allowed to identify the main signal as belonging to a mi… Show more
