posted on 2002-05-25, 00:00 authored by Florian Thomas, Stephan Schulz, Martin Nieger[Me2GaBi(SiMe3)2]3 (1) was synthesized in
high yield by the equimolar reaction of Me2GaH and Bi(SiMe3)3 and characterized by mass and multinuclear
NMR spectroscopy and by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. [Me2GaBi(SiMe3)2]3 represents the first Ga−Bi
heterocycle, closing the gap on structurally characterized
Ga−pnicogen compounds. The described reaction demonstrates the potential application of dialkylgallanes to
serve as powerful synthons in organometallic syntheses
requiring mild reaction conditions.
