Description
Summary:The synthesis of a novel heterocubane [RSnE] 4 was successful for E = As, while for E = P differing behaviour was observed. Aryl-substituted chlorostannylenes were treated with salts of heavy cyanate homologues PCO − and AsCO − . The reaction with AsCO − salts afforded primarily [TerSnAs] 4 (Ter = 2,6-dimesitylphenyl). In contrast, the reaction of TerSnCl with NaPCO proceeded considerably less cleanly affording a mixture of products. The main product was putatively a neutral [Ter 4 Sn 4 P 4 ] compound, however, it is not a cubane. A variety of by-products of this reaction could be characterised crystallographically. The synthesis of a novel heterocubane [RSnE] 4 was successful for E = As, while for E = P differing behaviour was observed.
