Abstract: A wide range of unsaturated hydrocarbons have been reduced with alkali metals in liquid ammonia and the carbanionic intermediates detected in situ by NMR and ESR spectroscopy. The substrates cluster into three different groups depending on whether they (i) persist as dianions,(ii) are protonated by ammonia to afford monohydro anions, or (iii) undergo further electron transfer/protonation steps to yield polyhydro derivatives.
