Abstract

While tetrahedranes as a family are scarce, neutral heteroatomic species are all but unknown, with the only reported example being AsP3. Herein, we describe the isolation of a neutral heteroatomic X2Y2 molecular tetrahedron (X, Y=p-block elements), which also is the long-sought-after free phosphaalkyne dimer. Di-tert-butyldiphosphatetrahedrane, (tBuCP)(2), is formed from the monomer tBuCP in a ...
