The structure-defining incorporation of chloride in methyllithium dimers

Abstract

We herein present two polymeric solid state structures of pmdta-stabilized methyllithium with co-existing dimeric and tetrameric units, exhibiting partial incorporation of nearly omnipresent LiCl selectively in the dimeric entities. An unexpected interconnecting contact from these positions to a neighboring tetrameric unit is observed.
