General description
1,2-Dimethoxybenzene reacts with Li{N(SO2CF3)2} to yield molecular crystal [Li{N(SO2CF3)2}{C6H4(OCH3)2}2] having solid-state lithium ion conductivity. It is a potential pollinator attractant of the nocturnal moth Hadena bicruris.
Application
1,2-Dimethoxybenzene was used to investigate the electroantennogram response of vine weevil, Otiorhynchus sulcatus to plant volatiles.

The molecular crystals [Li{N(SO2CF3)2}{C6H4(OCH3)2}2] and [Li{N(SO2CF3)2}{C6F2H2(OCH3)2}2] with solid-state lithium ion conductivity have been synthesized by the addition of two equivalents of 1,2-dimethoxybenzene or 1,2-difluoro-4,5-dimethoxybenzene to Li{N(SO2CF3)2}, respectively.
