Lithium diisopropylamide solution 2.0 M in THF/heptane/ethylbenzene
Lithium diisopropylamide solution (LDA) is a sterically hindered non-nucleophilic strong base widely used in organic synthesis.[3]
Lithium diisopropylamide solution (LDA) can be used:
• As an initiator in the anionic polymerization of
• To facilitate ester enolization.[4]
• To convert carboxylic acids to enediolate intermediates for preparing trifluoromethyl
ketones.[5]
• In ortho-lithiation of arylsulfonyloxazolidinone
• To catalyze ortholithiation and Fries rearrangement
of aryl carbamates.
• As a promoter in the isomerization of allylic ethers to (Z)-propenyl ethers.[7]
