Facile synthesis of cyclo-(P4tBu3)-containing oligo- and pnictaphosphanes
The cyclo-(P4tBu3) synthon [Li{cyclo-(P4tBu3)}(thf)(tmeda)] (1) (thf = tetrahydrofuran, tmeda = N,N,N′,N′-tetramethylethane-1,2-diamine) is readily accessible in a one-pot synthesis from P4 and LitBu. The use of 1 as a cyclo-(P4tBu3) building block enables the rational...
