The reaction of alkyl halides with three different lithium radical anions, lithium naphthalene (LiN), lithium di-tert-butylnaphthalene (LiDBN), and lithium di-terf-butylbiphenyl (LiDBB), was studied. The reaction of alkyl halides with an excess of LiN, LiDBN, or LiDBB in THF at-78 C leads to a consistently high yield (96-100%) of reduction products (RH, RLi) with a high degree of formation of RLi (anion trapping 93-95%) in the case of LiDBB. LiDBN consistently produces high yields of reduction products (89-99%) with widelyvariable amounts of anion trapping (21-88%), while LiN provides variable yields of reduction (39-99%) and anion trapping (24-65%). Variation of the concentration of lithium bromideand naphthalene and the ratio of alkyl halide to naphthalene in conjunction with the use of deuterium tracer experiments providedevidence consistent with a competition between metalationof the lithium dihydronaphthalenedicarboxylate by alkyllithium and carbonation of alkyllithium in the carbonation step of the analysis.
