Temperature‐dependent NMR spectroscopy allows the movements of substituents and groups in [Me 2 Si(NSiMe 3 ) 2 ] 2 InLi to be followed. These movements finally result in a process in which the lithium atom also migrates with respect to the other heavy atoms. In one of the models the result is a quasi‐orbital movement of the lithium atom around the core of the molecule occupied by an indium atom (picture shown on the right).
