“…Thus, tin-organic dibenzyl-dichlorostannane was obtained after 3 h milling of tin and liquid benzylchloride eqn (118). 167 Bismuthanes are not easily obtained in solution reactions. Solventfree milling of bismuth with osubstituted aryl iodides and three catalysts (Cu + CuI + CaCO 3 ) required continuous milling for creating excessive fresh metal surface during 12 h to obtain tris(2-R-aryl)bismuthanes in moderate to good yields eqn (119), where R was H, F, Cl, Br, CF 3 , CO 2 Et, and OMe.…”
