General description

Hexyllithium solution is an organolithium compound used in organic synthesis as a strong base, alkylating agent, and lithiation reagent.

Application

Hexyllithium solution can be used as an alkylating agent in the:
  • Ni-catalyzed cross-coupling with aryl halides.
  • Cu-catalyzed enantioselective allylic alkylation.
It can also be used as a lithiation agent for the lithiation of azetidines.

Packaging

The 25 mL Sure/Seal bottle is recommended as a single-use bottle. Repeated punctures will likely result in decreased performance of product.
