Alkali metal thallides go back to the investigative works of Eduard Zintl about base metals in negative oxidation states. In 1932, he described the crystal structure of NaTl as the first representative for this class of compounds. Since then, a bunch of versatile crystal structures has been reported for thallium as electronegative element in intermetallic solid state compounds. For combinations of thallium with alkali metals as electropositive counterparts, a broad range of different unique structure types has been observed. Interestingly, various thallium substructures at the same or very similar valence electron concentration (VEC) are obtained. This in return emphasizes that the role of the alkali metals on structure formation goes far beyond ancillary filling atoms, which are present only due to charge balancing reasons. In this review, the alkali metals are in focus and the local surroundings of the latter are discussed in terms of their crystallographic sites in the corresponding crystal structures.

The title compound was isolated from the treatment of Tp*Sn(Cl)2Bu (1) with a large excess of sodium hydroxide in a mixture of acetone-water at room temperature. [(Me2CO)3(NaTp*)2] (2) crystallizes at 4 °C as prismatic colorless crystals, in the monoclinic space group P21/c with Z = 4, a = 12.2837(6), b = 24.3197(12), c = 16.9547(8) Å, β = 110.017(1)°, and V = 4759.0(4) Å3. The X-ray crystallographic analysis revealed a dinuclear unit in which two Tp*Na moieties are held together by three bridging acetone molecules acting as oxygen-based donors.
