Abstract

A modified and more satisfactory technique for the preparation of lithium alkyls has been developed. Attempts have been made to prepare penta-alkyl nitrogen compounds from quaternary ammonium halides and lithium alkyls. These products, if formed, are very unstable and at once yield tertiary amines and hydrocarbons.
