Li organics
Within the broad spectrum of organometallic compounds, those of lithium are gaining more and more importance.
Due to the commercial availability and high reactivity butyllithium is the most commonly used organolithium reagent. By far the most important application of butyllithium is as an anionic initiator for the manufacture of synthetic rubber. The applications in preparative industrial chemistry have developed to a very important extent.
Besides butyllithium also methyl-, hexyl- as well as phenyllithium find increasing use.In addition, butyllithium as well as other lithium organics became valuable tools for the synthesis of pharmaceutical and agrochemical intermediates. They are used as metalation or alkylation reagents.
Mild reaction conditions, high yields and few by-products distinguish the application of lithium organics from other reagents.
