Dimethyllithioamine - Introduction

Lithium dimethylamide(Lithium dimethylamide) is an inorganic compound with the chemical formula LiN(CH3)2. It is a colorless solid that can be dissolved in organic solvents at room temperature, but it will quickly absorb moisture when exposed to air.

Lithium dimethylamide is a strong base with strong reducibility. It can react with water to produce flammable gas methane, and it will emit intense heat. Therefore, strict safety measures need to be taken during handling and storage.

Lithium dimethylamide has a wide range of applications in organic synthesis. It can be used as an alkali promoter, catalyst, and reagent for building organometallic compounds. It can be used for the synthesis of organometallic complexes such as ethyl-based complexes and metal-organic polymers.

The preparation of Lithium dimethylamide is generally obtained by reacting dimethylamine with lithium metal. Depending on the reaction conditions, the corresponding lithium amine hydrides and lithium chloramine salts can also be obtained.

Because Lithium dimethylamide is highly reactive, irritating and corrosive to the skin and eyes, it is necessary to wear protective equipment and avoid contact with the skin during use. At the same time, it is also sensitive to moisture in the air and should be stored in a dry environment, away from fire and oxidants.
