Abstract

Cut in half, add the plane, and sandwich together. In effect these steps form the twenty‐membered cage Sb₂N₆Li₆K₃O₃ from Sb₂N₆Li₆ and KotBu (see below, the cyclohexyl groups on the N atoms and the tBu groups on the O atoms have been omitted for clarity). The driving force is probably provided by the formation of LiO bonds. The apices of both polyhedra are Sb atoms bound to the N atoms that are linked by the Li atoms. In the center of the right‐hand polyhedron is the K₃O₃ plane. (Figure Presented.)
