Alkylating and metalating agent, without formation of gaseous by-products. Initiator for olefin polymerization.
Initiator for olefin polymerization. Alkylating and metalating agent.
Reagent for deprotonation with a very low nucleophilicity. Ideally suited for the deprotonation of e.g. pyridins to avoid Tschitschibabin side-reactions. Non pyrophoric Li-organometal reagent.
Metalating agent for amines, alcohols and carboxylic acids. Reagent for synthesis of Ziegler-Natta catalyst system. Modifier for anionic polymerization initiation.
Deprotonation reactions in organic synthesis.
