- When the reduction of Bal2 was performed using performed lithium naphthalenide, the metallocycle did not form
- These metals presumably form complexes with biphenyl M(biphenyl)2 (M = Sr or Ba) and hence are soluble in THF
- This is a gas chromatography ratio of the dihydro product versus the unreacted diene after acidic hydrolysis
