On-demand switching from mono-silylene to bis-silylene to access mono-, di- and mixed coinage metal complexes Recently, we discovered that silaiminyl-silylene, [LSi–Si(NDipp)L] (L = PhC(NtBu)2, Dipp = 2,6-diisopropylphenyl), can be converted from a mono-silylene to bis-silylene by using Lewis acids. This reve...

Synthesis of Molecular Organo‐f‐Element‐Polyphosphides with Non‐Classical Divalent Lanthanide Precursors The coordination and functionalization of white phosphorus (P4) by transition metal and main group element compounds has led to a great variety of polyphosphides. However, larger polyphosphides of th....
