Syntheses and structures of an unsolvated tetrakisimidophosphate {Li3[P(NBut)3(NSiMe3)]}2 and the face-sharing double-cubane {Li2(THF)[P(O)(NBut)2(NHBut)]}2

Abstract

The treatment of Me3SiN[double bond, length as m-dash]P(NHBut)3 with three equivalents of LiBun in toluene produces {Li3[P(NBut)3(NSiMe3)]}2 comprised of a Li6N6 cyclic ladder capped on the two hexagonal faces by μ3-PNSiMe3 groups; the corresponding reaction of O[double bond, length as m-dash]P(NHBut)3 yields the face-sharing double-cubane {Li2(THF)P(O)(NBut)2(NHBut)}2 with a central Li2O2 ring.
