Abstract

In connection with our study of the chemistry of alkylidenebisdialliylamines (enediamines) we have been interested in developing new synthetic routes to these compounds. Two such routes have previously been described.'b2 In this paper we report yet another synthesis of vinylidenebisdimethylamirie (3) by reaction of methyllithium with N, N, N', N'- tetramethylchloro-formamidinium chloride (1). The reaction of additional organolithium ...
