n-Hexyllithium in hexane solution (HxLi) is an organolithium compound primarily used in organic synthesis as a strong base, alkylating agent, and lithiation reagent. It is particularly effective in the deprotonation of weakly acidic compounds. Handling n-Hexyllithium requires strict safety precautions due to its highly reactive nature, particularly due to its sensitivity to moisture, air, and heat.

Emerging Trends in Microsphere Technology
Targeted drug delivery revolutionises treatment by focusing medications on specific tissues, reducing the impact on healthy cells. Scientists enhance this precision with carriers like microspheres and nanoparticles, controlling release and absorption. Microspheres, made from biodegradable proteins or polymers, sustain drug release, making them ideal for targeted therapies, especially in oncology. Beyond drug delivery, microspheres open new possibilities across industries—from next-gen coatings to thermal insulation. With tailored sizes, shapes, and materials, they drive advancements in pharmaceuticals, advanced materials, and more.
