Zincate-Mediated Arylation Reactions of Acridine: Pre- and Postarylation Structural Insights

This study explores the synthetic utility of homo(aryl) lithum zincate reagents [LiZnPh3] (2) and [Li2ZnPh4] (3), made by cocomplexation of variable amounts of their monometallic components LiPh and ZnPh2 (1), as chemoselective nucleophilic arylating reagents. Lithium zincates 2 and 3 were both char...
