N-Butyl lithium (CAS 109-72-8) is the most important organolithium compound. It is widely used as a polymerization initiator for elastic polymers such as polybutadiene and styrene-butadiene-styrene resins. It is also often used as a strong base in organic synthesis in industry and laboratories. n-N-Butyl lithium is usually sold as an alkane solution. Although n-N-Butyl lithium itself is a colorless solid, it usually occurs as a pale yellow solution in alkane. N-Butyl lithium is mainly used as a catalyst for the reaction of synthetic rubber and pharmaceutical intermediates. It can reduce the temperature of the reaction. It is only used as a catalyst and does not participate in the reaction. After the reaction, it is converted into a lithium chloride solution and rises up.
The global N-Butyl lithium market was valued at US$ 1143.8 million in 2023 and is anticipated to reach US$ 421.7 million by 2030, witnessing a CAGR of -7.3% during the forecast period 2024-2030.
