Abstract

Experimental and spectroscopic studies revealed unprecedented reactivity of a "naked" lithium cation with very weakly coordinating anions, including carborane anions. The superactivated lithium cation has greatly enhanced Lewis acidic character and mediates various organic reactions such as carbonyl-ene reaction, NBS-bromination of unactivated aromatics, and Friedel-Crafts alkylation, which are not promoted by conventional lithium salts. Chemical robustness of the counteranion also plays an important role in the chemistry of the strongly activated lithium cation.
