Rpk. Babu et al., Dimeric bridged and chelated alkali metal (Li and Na) bis(iminophosphorano)methanide complexes with contrasting structures, INORG CHEM, 39(21), 2000, pp. 4981
Lithium (2) and sodium (3) complexes of deprotonated bis(iminophosphorano)m
ethane, CH2(Ph2P=NSiMe3)(2), 1, differ in that the former is a C-bridged an
d the latter is an N-bridged dimer in the solid state.
