Research paper thumbnail of Lithium anilide complexed by pmdeta: expectation of a simple monomer, but in reality an odd trinuclear composition combining three-, four- and five-coordinate lithium

Journal of the Chemical Society, Chemical Communications, 1995

Lithium structural chemistry continues to surprise as highlighted here by the reaction of BunLi, ... more Lithium structural chemistry continues to surprise as highlighted here by the reaction of BunLi, aniline and pmdeta, which by analogy with related systems, should yield a simple monomeric complex, when, in fact, an unprecedented trinuclear formulation is produced; in contrast, the corresponding Na system falls into line with predictions, in yielding a dimeric product.
