Question:

Z. Jedlinski and M. Sokol describe the solubility of alkali metals in nonaqueous supramolecular systems (Pure Appl. Chem., 1995, 67, 587). They dissolved the metals in THF containing crown ethers or cryptands. Sketch the structure of the 18-crown-6 ligand. Give the equations proposed for the dissolution process. Outline the two methods used to prepare the alkali metal solutions. What factors affect the stability of the solutions?
