Propynylithium is a chemical compound from the group of organolithium compounds .

Extraction and presentation

Propynylithium is produced in situ under nitrogen by reacting propyne (condensed in cold tetrahydrofuran ) with n -butyllithium in tetrahydrofuran at −78 ° C or lithium amide in ether / liquid ammonia below −50 ° C or by reacting 1,2-dibromopropane with 3 equivalents Lithium diisopropylamide (double elimination of hydrogen bromide and deprotonation) produced at −60 ° C to 0 ° C in tetrahydrofuran.

Some syntheses start directly with 1-bromopropene .

use

Propynylithium is used in organic synthesis as the nucleophilic source of the propynyl moiety for many electrophiles.
