MeLi + LiCl in THF: one heterodimer and no tetramers.
    The Journal of organic chemistry, 2010, Sep-03, Volume: 75, Issue:17

    The structure of the aggregates formed when mixing methyllithium and lithium chloride in THF has been studied by multinuclear magnetic resonance at 170 K. The data suggest that only one new entity is observed, that is the dimer [(MeLi)(LiCl)], in equilibrium (K approximately 0.6) with [MeLi](4) and [LiCl](2). NMR diffusion measurements lead to the conclusion that this dimer is trisolvated in THF at 170 K, a solvation scheme in agreement with DFT computations.

1,4-addition of lithium diisopropylamide to unsaturated esters: role of rate-limiting deaggregation, autocatalysis, lithium chloride catalysis, and other mixed aggregation effects.
    Journal of the American Chemical Society, 2010, Nov-10, Volume: 132, Issue:44

    Lithium diisopropylamide (LDA) in tetrahydrofuran at -78 °C undergoes 1,4-addition to an unsaturated ester via a rate-limiting deaggregation of LDA dimer followed by a post-rate-limiting reaction with the substrate. Muted autocatalysis is traced to a lithium enolate-mediated deaggregation of the LDA dimer and the intervention of LDA-lithium enolate mixed aggregates displaying higher reactivities than LDA. Striking accelerations are elicited by <1.0 mol % LiCl. Rate and mechanistic studies have revealed that the uncatalyzed and catalyzed pathways funnel through a common monosolvated-monomer-based intermediate. Four distinct classes of mixed aggregation effects are discussed.

The Morita-Baylis-Hillman adducts of beta-aryl nitroethylenes with other activated alkenes: synthesis and anticancer activity studies.
    Chemical communications (Cambridge, England), 2006, Jan-21, Issue:3

    The Morita-Baylis-Hillman (MBH) adducts of beta-aryl nitroethylenes with methyl vinyl ketone (MVK) and acrylate, formed in moderate to good yield when mediated by imidazole/LiCl in THF at room temperature, inhibit HeLa cell proliferation by binding to tubulin.

Complexation and medium effects on the conformation of cyclosporin A studied by NMR spectroscopy and molecular dynamics calculations.
    Biochemical pharmacology, 1990, Jul-01, Volume: 40, Issue:1

    The conformation of cyclosporin A was investigated in different environments. Whereas there was no distinct difference between the structure of CSA in CDCl3 and THF, the addition of LiCl caused a conformational change. Also, using polar solvents (DMSO, water) induced conformational changes in the backbone as well as the side chains.
