Organolithium compounds, molecules containing a carbon–lithium bond, are excellent precursors for building new carbon–carbon and other carbon–heteroatom bonds. They are widely utilized in both ...

A team of chemists at the University of York has developed a low-cost, encapsulating hexatriacontane organogel that enhances the stability, handling, delivery, storage and portioning of sensitive ...

Organolithium reagents are stalwarts of synthesis commonly used to forge carbon-carbon bonds. Now, researchers say they have developed an improved method for preparing the purified, highly reactive ...

Protecting-group-free synthesis has received significant recent research interest in the context of ideal synthesis and green sustainable chemistry. In general, organolithium species react with ...

Synthetic chemists prize organolithium reagents for their ability to build carbon-carbon bonds. But their extreme reactivity also makes them dangerous—they can spontaneously ignite when exposed to air ...

Mehrere etablierte Synthesewege zu Organolithiumverbindungen erfordern relativ komplexe Reaktionsanordnungen, große Mengen organischer Lösungsmittel und eine strikte Beachtung der Luft-, Feuchtigkeits ...
