Description

Lithium diisopropylamide (LDA) is a prominent reagent used in organic synthesis. It is strong, low-nucleophilic base for e.g. enolisations. Corrosive to the eyes (may cause blindness), skin, mucous membranes and upper respiratory tract. Inhalation of vapors may cause dizziness, nausea, anesthesia, numbness, motor weakness in fingers and toes, incoordination, and headache.
