<p>A process for preparing easily separable solutions of organolithium compounds comprising the steps of reacting lithium metal, in the form of cast or extruded ingots or pieces cut therefrom, with an organo halide in mole ratios ranging from 3:1 to 20:1 in a solvent selected from a group of liquid hydrocarbons, alkyl ethers, and mixtures thereof under an inert atmosphere for one to ten hours with moderate stirring, cooling the resulting product, and separating the solution of the organolithium compound from the reacted lithium metal and by-product lithium chloride in the reactor.</p> |
