The MNDO method was used to evaluate the deaggregation energies of met
hyllithium dimer and its complexes with benzene and acrylonitrile. The
results obtained show that deaggregation of these complexes has a con
siderable energy preference over deaggregation of associates which con
tain no electron donor ligands. A correlation was found between these
data and the electron characteristics of the compounds studied.
