Abstract

0022-3263/88/1953-2643 $01.50/0 tetramethylpiperidide (LTMP) to name a few. The usefulness of lithium amide bases in carbanion formation is well established., As a result of their popularity, the preparation of each respective base has been accomplished by a wide variety of experimental conditions. For instance, LDA has been prepared by the addition of n- butyllithium in hexane to a solution of diisopropylamine in tetrahydrofuran (THF) at 0" C ...
