Abstract
Cyclotriarsanes are rare and described herein is a scalable synthetic protocol towards (AsAr)3, which allowed to study their reactivity towards [Cp2Ti(C2(SiMe3)2)], affording titanocene diarsene complexes, and towards N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) to give straightforward access to a variety of NHC-arsinidene adducts.
