Synthesis, Structure, and Spectroscopy of the Biscarboranyl Stannylenes (bc)Sn·THF and K2[(bc)Sn]2 (bc = 1,1'(ortho-Biscarborane)) and Dibiscarboranyl Ethene (bc)CH=CH(bc)
{{output}}
Two compounds containing a Sn(II) atom supported by a bidentate biscarborane ligand have been synthesized via salt metathesis. The synthetic procedures for (bc)Sn·THF (bc = 1,1' (ortho-carborane) (1) and K2[(bc)Sn]2 (2) involved the reaction of K2[bc] with Sn... ...
