Scalar coupling in organolithium systems can provide access to useful structural and dynamic informations. In this work, we propose a robust method for the accurate measurement of the effective 2JLi–Li coupling constant in tetramerics alkyllithium aggregates. This crucial information, unavalaible to date, gives a simple access to various structural factors, including the dynamics, solvation and the operative steric hindrance of alkyl chains.
