Dilithium diphenylmethanediide, Ph2CLi2, prepared by reaction of dichlorodiphenylmethane with lithium p, p′-di-tert-butylbiphenyl, reacts with organic halides and carbonyl compounds to give lithium Chlorodiphenylmethanide, Ph2CLiCl, as a major product and is assumed to exist in two different states of aggregation.
