Abstract
Some organopotassium compounds have been prepared by treatment of organolithium compounds with potassium (−)(1 R)-menthoxide. The products are obtained in good yield and relatively pure. Treatment of n-butyllithium with potassium (−)(1 R)-menthoxide in the presence of some aromatic hydrocarbons leads to formation of the potassium derivatives of these hydrocarbons.
