The formation of C‐Li‐O‐S‐C five‐membered rings is the most important characteristic in the double lithiation of bis(trimethylsilyl)methyl phenyl sulfone 1 (R R′ H), in which 2 is formed. 2 is present as dimer in the crystal; the two monomers are coupled via Li 2 O 2 four‐membered rings. The structure in the crystal is stabilized by four ether ligands per dimer. There are no interactions between Li ⊕ and the “carbanionic” C(SiMe 3 ) 2 groups. The sp 2 orbital of the ortho C‐atom of 2 points to the midpoint between the two Li ⊕ ions.
