Synthesis and Characterization of Free and Coordinated 1,2,3-Tripnictolide Anions

Journal article

We have investigated the chemical reactivity of heptaatomic anionic clusters of the group 15 elements ([E7]3-/[HE 7]2-, E = P, As) toward the symmetric and asymmetrically substituted alkynes diphenylacetylene and phenylacetylene. The results reported herein, alongside a previous report on the reactivity of such clusters toward acetylene, describe a versatile route by which to access otherwise elusive 1,2,3-tripnictolide anions of the general formula [E3C 2RR′]- (R = R′ = H, E = P (1), As (2);...
