The Preparation of Organolithium Reagents and Intermediates

Pincer Complexes of Lithium, Sodium, Magnesium and Related Metals: A Discussion of Solution and Solid-State Aggregated Structure and Reactivity

“…Such structural motifs are not common in Li + chemistry [12][13][14]. However, the structure of 32 is reminiscent of hetero-aggregated lithium clusters containing organolithiums (cf.…”

“…The discovery (Victor Grignard [3][4][5][6]) of the utility [3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11] of organomagnesium compounds, and the subsequent syntheses and applications of organolithium reagents by Schlenk, Ziegler, Wittig, Gilman and others [9][10][11][12][13][14] can now be seen as a pivotal turning point in modern synthetic chemistry [12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21]. In this regard, several excellent reviews by Seyferth on the early chemistry of organoalkali and organozinc chemistries has appeared [18][19][20].…”

“…1 Very detailed studies ( 1 H, 13 C, 6,7 Li NMR, isotopic labelling, etc.) by Reich and co-workers have demonstrated how the addition of solvent Fig.…”

Metal‐free catalytic activation and borylation of the ––H bond of 1‐methyl pyrrole using adamantane‐derived aminoborane frustrated Lewis pairs: A density functional theory study

“…The plausible route for the synthesis of adamantyl aminoborane derivative is given in Scheme S1. [72][73][74][75] We have introduced fluorine atom as an electronwithdrawing group nearest to the LA moiety in the adamantine ring to avoid the use of sterically hindered bulky electron-withdrawing group and to improve further the catalytic reactivity of the adamantyl FLPs. As shown in Scheme 2, we have examined four possibilities for fluorine substitution at the LA site (1-4).…”
