Abstract
Several reactions mediated by lithium diisopropylamide (LDA) with added hexamethylphosphoramide (HMPA) are described. The N-isopropylimine of cyclohexanone lithiates via an ensemble of monomer-based pathways. Conjugate addition of LDA/HMPA to an unsaturated ester proceeds via di- and tetra-HMPA-solvated dimers. Deprotonation of norbornene epoxide by LDA/HMPA proceeds via an intermediate metalated epoxide as a mixed dimer with LDA. Ortholithiation of an aryl carbamate proceeds via a mono-HMPA-solvated monomer-based pathway. Dependencies on THF and other ethereal cosolvents suggest that secondary-shell solvation effects are important in some instances. The origins of the inordinate mechanistic complexity are discussed.

Abstract
Enolizations of 2-methylcyclohexanone by lithium hexamethyldisilazide (LiHMDS) in the presence of three chelating ligands--trans-N,N,N',N'-tetramethylcyclohexanediamine, N,N,N',N'-tetramethylethylenediamine, and dimethoxyethane--reveal an approximate 40-fold range of rates. NMR spectroscopic analyses and rate studies reveal isostructural transition structures based on monomeric LiHMDS for the diamines. Rate studies of LiHMDS/dimethoxyethane-mediated enolizations implicate a substantial number of monomer- and dimer-based mechanisms. The rate laws vary for the three ligands because of ligand-dependent structural differences in both the reactants and the transition structures. The importance of LiHMDS-ketone complexes and the role of hydrocarbon cosolvents are discussed.

Abstract
Lithium diisopropylamide (LDA) is a prominent reagent used in organic synthesis. In this Review, rate studies of LDA-mediated reactions are placed in the broader context of organic synthesis in three distinct segments. The first section provides a tutorial on solution kinetics, emphasizing the characteristic rate behavior caused by dominant solvation and aggregation effects. The second section summarizes substrate- and solvent-dependent mechanisms that reveal basic principles of solvation and aggregation. The final section suggests how an understanding of mechanism might be combined with empirical methods to optimize yields, rates, and selectivities of organolithium reactions and applied to organic synthesis.
