Abstract

The acid-base reaction of the Al^III imido cubane [AlMe(Nmes)]₄ (mes = 2,4,6-Me₃C₆H₂) with Li[PH(C₆H₁₁)] yielded the heterobimetallic cage complex [Li(OC₄H₈X]₄-[{(AlMe)[μ-P(C ₆H₁₁)]}₂{μ-P(C₆H ₁₁)}]₂·C₆H₅Me, the metallacyclic tetraanion of which is the first example of an Al^III phosphinidine anion.
