Straightforward deprotonation of soluble tetramethylammonium salts with alkyllithium reagents gives lithiomethyl trimethylammonium reagents. Coordination of the Li cation is crucial to the stability of these 'N-C ylides'. These reagents were used to prepare epoxides, aziridines and allylic alcohols.
