Abstract

The anhydrous complex (LiSCN·TMEDA)_n (1) [TMEDA = Me ₂N(CH₂)₂NMe₂] has been synthesised by a novel in situ route from solid NH₄SCN and BuⁿLi in TMEDA/hexane, and shown to have a polymeric chain crystal structure with Li-N=^..C-^..S ⋯ Li repeat units; in hydrocarbon solvents, however, (1) adopts a dimeric, purely N-Li bridged structure.
