Description:
From stable Sb- and Bi-centered radicals to a compound with a Ga=Sb double bond From stable Sb- and Bi-centered radicals to a compound with a Ga=Sb double bond, Published online: 08 January 2018; doi:10.1038/s41467-017-02581-2 Radicals of heavy main-group elements represent important intermediates in chemical synthesis, yet few have been isolated. Here the authors stabilize neutral stibinyl and bismuthinyl radicals using gallium-based ligands, and reduce the former to afford a Ga=Sb double bond-containing complex.
