Structure of n-Butyllithium (CAS NO.109-72-8):
IUPAC Name: Lithium butane
Canonical SMILES: [Li+].CCC[CH2-]
InChI: InChI=1S/C4H9.Li/c1-3-4-2;/h1,3-4H2,2H3;/q-1;+1
InChIKey: DLEDOFVPSDKWEF-UHFFFAOYSA-N
Product Category of n-Butyllithium (CAS NO.109-72-8): Organometallics;Alkyl Metals;Grignard Reagents & Alkyl Metals;Li (Lithium) Compounds;Synthetic Organic Chemistry;Typical Metal Compounds
Uses
n-Butyllithium (CAS NO.109-72-8) is principally valued as a catalyst for the industrial polymerization of dienes, such as butadiene: C4H9Li + CH2=CH-CH=CH2 → C4H9-CH2-CH=CH-CH2Li .
Isoprene can be polymerized stereospecifically in this way. Also of commercially importance is the use of butyllithium for the production of styrene-butadiene polymers. Even ethylene will insert into BuLi.
Production
The standard preparation for n-BuLi is reaction of bromobutane or chlorobutane with Li metal:
2 Li + C4H9X → C4H9Li + LiX
where X = Cl, Br
Safety Profile
S36/37/39:Wear suitable protective clothing, gloves and eye/face protection. S36/37/39:Wear suitable protective clothing, gloves and eye/face protection. Probably very toxic. Solutions of greater than 20% will ignite spontaneously in air. Ignites on contact with water or CO2. May cause potentially explosive polymerization of styrene. Extremely flammable. To fight fire, use dry chemical; see special instructions of manufacturer. See also LITHIUM COMPOUNDS and BUTYLLITHIUM.

Specification
n-Butyllithium , its cas register number is 109-72-8. It also can be called Lithium, butyl- ; and Butyllithium . It is hazardous, so the first aid measures and others should be known. Such as: When on the skin: first, should flush skin with plenty of water immediately for at least 15 minutes while removing contaminated clothing. Secondly, get medical aid. Or in the eyes: Flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes, occasionally lifting the upper and lower eyelids. Then get medical aid soon. While, it's inhaled: Remove from exposure and move to fresh air immediately. Give artificial respiration while not breathing. When breathing is difficult, give oxygen. And as soon as to get medical aid. Then you have the ingesting of the product: Do not induce vomiting. Get medical aid immediately. Notes to physician: Treat supportively and symptomatically.
In addition, n-Butyllithium (CAS NO.109-72-8) is air sensitive, moisture sensitive, and light sensitive, and reacts violently with water. It contacts with water liberates highly flammable gases., acids, alcohols, carbon dioxide, oxygen, hydrogen, organic halides, and you must not take it with incompatible materials, ignition sources, exposure to air, exposure to moist air or water, direct sunlight.. And also prevent it to broken down into hazardous decomposition products: Carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, butane, lithium oxide.
