A silylene-stabilized distannavinylidene with a highly labile substituent
Vinylidene and its heavier analogues are fundamentally important in synthetic chemistry, but their stabilization and structural characterization remains extremely challenging. Herein we describe that the reduc...

Open AccessA silylene-stabilized ditin(0) complex and its conversion to methylditin cation and distannavinylidene
Due to their intrinsic high reactivity, isolation of tin(0) complexes remains challenging. Herein, we report the synthesis of a silylene-stabilized ditin(0) complex (2) by reduction of a silylene-supported dibrom...

Open AccessIsolation and characterization of bis(silylene)-stabilized antimony(I) and bismuth(I) cations
Monovalent group 15 cations L2Pnâ+â(L = Ï-donor ligands, Pn = N, P, As, Sb, Bi) have attracted significant experimental and theoretical interest because of their unusual electronic structures and growing syntheti...
