Diisopropylamine → Lithium diisopropylamide mono(tetrahydrofuran)

Participants

Reaction Steps

A tetrahydrofuran (8 ml) solution of diisopropylamine (1.0 ml, 7.1 mmol) was cooled to 5° C., then n-butyllithium hexane solution (4.1 ml, 1.58 M, 6.5 mmol) was dropwise added thereto while 10 minutes, thus lithium diisopropylamide tetrahydrofuran solution was obtained.
