Methyl lithium and butyl lithium are widely used for the synthesis of other organolithium compounds. For example, lithium cyclopentadienides are generally prepared by the reaction of the cyclopentadiene with butyl lithium. In contrast, the amido-alkali metal compounds are becoming increasingly important in the synthesis of organoalkali metal compounds with the heavier alkali metals. For example, l,2,4-tris(trimethylsilyl)-l,3-cyclopentadiene reacts with potassium bis(trimethylsilyl)amide to form potassium l,2,4-tris(trimethylsilyl)cyclopentadienide. ...
