Lithium Trifluoromethanesulfonimide in Acetone or Diethyl Ether as a Safe Alternative to Lithium Perchlorate in Diethyl Ether for Effecting Diels-Alder Reactions. Unexpected Influence of the Counterion of Exo/Endo Selectivity

Abstract
Concentrated solutions of lithium trifluoromethanesulfonimide in either acetone or diethyl ether constitute convenient and safe alternatives to lithium perchlorate in diethyl ether for promoting and accelerating [4+2] cycloaddition reactions.
