Dear Orglisters,

Publications dealing with very reactive organolithium compounds frequently
write in their experimental section about having worked under "Schlenk
conditions," probably meaning very low temperatures, extreme dryness of
glassware, reagents, solvents, and the inert atmosphere for total exclusion
of air (something else missing?). However, I haven't seen a direct citation
of the literature source where Schlenk (I surmise W. Schlenk and E.
Bergmann) describes the experimental setup that has been so frequently
emulated. Can somebody point where can I find the original conditions?

Thanks in advance,

Jacob
