Abstract
Trimethylsilylmethyllithium (TMSCH2Li) is well-known as a nucleophilic reagent in methylation and methylenation reactions but its application in deprotonation or halogen-metal exchange has been underexploited to date. The present review covers new applications of TMSCH2Li and TMSCH2Li-LiDMAE (LiDMAE=Lithium 2-dimethylamino ethoxide) in selective metallation of pyridine derivatives focusing on the design of more applicable bromine-lithium exchange and deprotonation processes as well as new selectivities.
Keywords: Trimethylsilylmethyllithium, aggregates, functionalisation, lithiation, nucleophilicity, pyridine, selectivity, TMEDA, PMDETA, DIA (diisopropylamine), Fluoropyridines, Lithiation of (S)-Nicotine, halogen-metal exchange, deprotonation

Catalytic C-H bond activation as a tool for functionalization of heterocycles
The major topic is the functionalization of heterocycles through catalyzed C-H bond activation. The strategies based on C-H activation not only provide straightforward formation of C-C or C-X bonds but, more importantly, allow for the avoidance of pre-functionalization of one or two of the cross-coupling partners. The beneficial impact of ...read more
Chemistry and Biology of Carbohydrates
Carbohydrates are one of the most abundant natural products and are considered to be extremely important biomolecules for their ever-increasing impact on chemistry and biology. Their role in several important biological processes, notably energy storage, transport, modulation of protein function, intercellular adhesion, malignant transformation, signal transduction, viral, and bacterial cell ...read more
