[Bis(Trimethylsilyl)Methyl]Lithium and -Sodium: Solubility in Alkanes and Complexes with O- and N- Donor Ligands

In contrast to alkyl compounds of lithium, which play an important role in organometallic chemistry, the corresponding heavier alkali metal compounds are less investigated. These compounds are mostly insoluble in inert solvents or undergo solvolysis in coordinating solvents due to their high reactiv...
