Abstract
The weak solvating ligand 1,4-dimethylpiperazine appears to only partially disrupt the aggregation within lithium anilide, as evidenced by the structu re of the title solvate: a three-dimensional polymer of solvent-linked irre gularly shaped (NLi)(5) substructures, which can be interpreted as two inte rconnected ladders.
