A relatively large excess of these lewis basic cosolvents are required as compared to hmpa.
Introduced by henri kagan more than three decades ago, samarium diiodide (smi 2) has found increasing applications in chemical synthesis
Smi2 has been used extensively in literature due to its large reduction potential Samarium (ii) iodide, smi2, when employed as a solution for organic synthesis, is known as “kagan’s reagent.” smi2 is a green solid and its solutions are green as well. Samarium (ii) iodide is an inorganic compound with the formula smi2
