<p>The present invention relates to anhydrous solutions of MX 3 €¢z LiA in a solvent, wherein M is a lanthanide including lanthanum, or yttrium or indium; z > 0; and X and A are independently or both monovalent anions, preferably Cl, Br or I. The solution is readily prepared by dissolving or suspending MX 3 or its hydrate and z equiv LiA in water or hydrophilic solvents, or mixtures thereof, removing the solvent under vacuum and dissolving the resulting powder in another solvent. The solution of MX 3 €¢z LiA can advantageously be used e.g. in addition reactions of Grignard reagents to ketones and imines. Even the catalytic use of MX 3 €¢z LiA is possible.
Also claimed are a method for preparing the anhydrous solutions, the use of such solution in a chemical reaction and chemical compositions MX 3 €¢z LiA, with M, z, X and A as indicated above.</p> |
