Vanadium tetrakis(dimethylamide) → HCID 178448251, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a dark-green solution of 0.048 g (0.21 mmol) of vanadium tetrakis(dimethylamide) in hexane was added from a syringe 0.26 ml of a 1.6 M solution of butyllithium (0.21 mmol) in hexane. Lithium dimethylamide precipitated rapidly. The total volume of liquid in the mixture was about 6 ml. After 15 minutes the mixture was filtered to give a clear green solution of dibutylvanadium bis(dimethylamide) in hexane.
