Synthesis and crystal structure of bicyclo[1,1,0]butan-1-yl-lithium- tetramethylethylenediamine
Abstract
The crystal structure of bicyclo[1,1,0] butan-1-yl-lithium-tetramethylethylenediamine(TMEDA) was determined and found to consist of dimeric units consisting of two lithium atoms bridged by two bicyclobutyl groups and a TMEDA molecule co-ordinated to each lithium atom.
