Abstract
Process of metalating benzene containing alkyl, alkoxy or dialkylamino substituents, such as toluene, anisole and N,N-dimethyl-aniline, with an organolithium compound such as sec-butyllithium adducts with styrene, in the presence of a tertiary alkyl amine (containing no methyl groups) such as triethylamine, the ratio of lithium in said organolithium compound to the tertiary alkyl amine being 1 gram atom of the lithium to from about 0.25 to about 4 gram moles of the tertiary alkyl amine.
