✦ Synopsis


Addition of the chiral amine (S)-methyl(1-phenyl-2-pyrrolidinoethyl)-[ 15 N]amine (1) to a large excess of nBuNa resulted in the formation of a mixed sodium amide/nBuNa complex. This is the first observation of such a complex. Addition of nBuLi to the chiral sodium amide dimer 3 gave a new mixed lithium/sodium amide 5. The use of 15 N, 6 Li coupling constants showed that the lithium in 5 occupied the tetracoordinated site. The use of chiral sodium amide 3 in the desymmetrization of cyclohexene oxide gave a modest enantiomeric excess (ee) of 37%. The corresponding lithium amide gave an ee of 70 % of the same enantiomer. This is the first example of the comparison of asymmetric induction by sodium as cation with that of lithium.

Benzaldehyde in THF reacts with lithium metal to give the expected reduction product, benzyl alcohol, plus benzoin and benzyl as minor products. The kinetics of the overall reaction as well as the partial rate coefficients of the several steps have been determined under various reaction conditions.
