LiOMe is a mild base used mainly in organic synthesis, most often in transesterifications. This reagent is offered currently in methanol solution of LiOMe (2.2M) and therefore is very easy to transfer from shipping container to storage or reactor. On contact with moisture, it is converted to methanol and lithium hydroxide causing the solution to become cloudy. For leading references, consult J. Mater. Res. 1999, 14, 1510.
