Abstract

Reaction of [As(NMe2)3] with CyNH2 (1:1 equivalents), followed by the addition of [CyNHLi] (1 equivalent) gives the heterobimetallic cage complex [{As2(NCy)4}2Li4], the first example of a complex containing an imido As(III) anion; the missing link in a series of Group 15 anions of the type [{E2(NCy)4}]2- (E = Bi, Sb and P).
