Abstract
The crystalline lithium primary amide derived from tert-butylamine, [{Bu<sup>t</sup>N(H)Li}<sup><i>n</i></sup>], is structurally characterised by an X-ray diffraction study and shown to be a novel octameric (<i>n</i>= 8) ladder conformation, the cyclic, ‘double-crown’ nature of which implies molecules of this design could direct the synthesis of heterobimetallic (i.e. lithium and another metal) imide cage constructions.
