A study of a bis(amido)alkyl potassium magnesiate has demonstrated that it reacts kinetically through its amide, generating a metalated intermediate and concomitant amine, which is then deprotonated by its alkyl ligand to yield the thermodynamic final metalation product. This second step is slowed down by performing the deprotonation at 0 °C., W. Clegg, B. Conway, P. Garcia-Alvarez, A. R. Kennedy, R. E. Mulvey, L. Russo, J. Sassmannshausen, T. Tuttle, Chem. Eur.
