21. The 1,4-addition of tert-butyllithium to 1,3-butadiene led to neopentylallyllithium of similar structure to 6. cis-trans isomerization occurs slowly in THF. By heating at 30 °C and then lowered to -18 °C, extensive cis-trans isomerization occurred in favor of the cis-isomer, see:. Glaze W.H., Hanicak J.E., Chaudhuri J., Moore M.L., and Duncan D.P. J.

43. Watanabe has shown that lithium naphthalene in THF solution induces the formation of di-isoprene dianion, which gives 2,6-dimethyl-2,6-octadiene and 2,7-dimethyl-2,6-octadiene, in 80% yield while sodium naphthalene in THF-benzene leads to a mixture of 2,3,6-trimethyl-1,5-heptadiene (79%) and 2,7-dimethyl-2,6-octadiene (20%) in 50% yield.
