Subject: ORGLIST: Tetrakis(dimethylamino)ethylene

Hi.
Tetrakis(dimethylamino)ethylene is an exceptionally electron-rich alkene.
Its most interesting property is the spectacular green chemiluminescence
which accompanies its autoxidation upon contact with air. This phenomenon
has been exploited in dozens of patented applications, including a
luminescent aerosol bright enough to light up an area at night.
(Lehikoinen,U. A. U.S.Patent No. 3679594, 1972)

Does anyone familiar with this compound or has an easy access to this
patent?

I am going to tell you an exiting story of references in some of chemistry
articles.
I read in one of JACS article something like that: "the synthesis of
tetrakis(dimethylamino)ethylene has been published [20]"
In experimental section of [20] (J. Phys. Chem.) I've found:
"tetrakis(dimethylamino)ethylene has been purchased from ..."
Really good synthetic method, isn't it?

So, I want to know, how often do you have to deal with such irrelevant
references?
Is there any investigation of this subject?

Kind regards.
