doi:10.2174/157019307781369913

Abstract

The objectives of this review are mainly reactions of alkalides with various classes of organic compounds. Mechanisms of these processes are discussed taking into account our present stage of knowledge. A new method for the preparation of crystalline nanomaterials via homogeneous reduction of transition and post-transition metal salts is also presented.

Keywords: Alkalides, potassium anions, two-electron-transfer, reduction, vinyl compounds, ethers, esters
