Chemistry of Dienyl Anions. I. Crystalline Dienyl Anions by Direct Reaction of Conjugated and Non-conjugated Dienes with Alkali Metals in the Presence of Et<sub>3</sub>N
Series of acyclic and cyclic dienyl anions were prepared from both conjugated and non-conjugated dienes by direct metalation with alkalimetals (Li, Na, K, Rb, and Cs) in tetrahydrofuran in the pre...
