Abstract: | The structures of the crystalline lithium enolates derived from 3, 3-dimethyl-2-butanone and from cyclopentanone have been determined by X-ray analysis. Both structures are tetrameric aggregates based on a Li4O4-cube, each Li+-ion being additionally bonded to the O-atom of a tetrahydrofuran solvent molecule. |
