Abstract
The reaction between KIn(CH2CMe3)(3)H and ClPPh2 in pentane or benzene prod uces significant yields of two indium-phosphorus compounds, (Me3CCH2)InPPh2 and (Me3CCH2)(3)In . P(CH2CMe3)Ph-2. This unexpected adduct incorporates a neopentyl group that was originally a substituent on the indium reagent. T he other products of the reaction are CMe4, H-2, and KCl. The formation of ail products is explained by a set of experimentally verified reactions.
