1. In general, we speak of enantiomerically enriched metal alkyls if we focus our interest on the stereogenic metalated carbon atom, whereas these molecules are almost always diastereomerically enriched metal alkyls, because of the presence of more stereogenic centers than only the metalated one.

55. - are elucidative examples for side-arm fixation. While the alkali metals shift from the central deprotonated carbon atom toward the ring center of a single phenyl substituent as their mass gets bigger (Hoffmann, D.; Bauer, W.; Schleyer, P. v. R.; Pieper, U.; Stalke, D. Organometallics 1993, 12, 1193-1200),
56. the pyridyl ring nitrogen atom keeps them in a fixed position (Pieper, U.; Stalke, D. Organometallics 1993, 12, 1201-1206).

87. The extent of the stabilization through negative hyperconjugation could not be quantified. The torsion angle Li(1)-C(3)-Si(1)-C(10) of 32.8° is just 6° wider than the one in ref 26.
88. Because of the bond path to the lithium atom, the nomenclature is rather wrong, but is maintained because of the common association of a deprotonated carbon atom with a lone pair.
