Alkali metal ethoxides have been reported to exist as dimmers or other aggregates in a high concentration region (e.g., [EtOM] > 0.1 M). 14 However, it has been suggested that EtOM exists as dissociated and ion-paired species in concentration below 0.1 M. 14 Since the current reactions were performed in a low concentration region (e.g., [EtOM] < 0.012 M), one might expect that both dissociated EtO ‒ and ion-paired EtOM react with substrate 6 as shown in Scheme 2.
