The syntheses of the arylphosphonic esters 3-Br-5-tBu-1-{P(O)(OiPr) 2 }C 6 H 3 (1), 5-tBu-1,3-{P(O)(OiPr) 2 } 2 C 6 H 3 (2), of the heteroleptic intramolecularly coordinated organostannylenes [4-tBu-2,6-{P(O)(OiPr) 2 } 2 C 6 H 2 ]SnX (3, X = Cl; 4, X = Br; 5, X = I; 6, X = SPh), the organoplumbylene [4-tBu-2,6-{P(O)(OiPr) 2 } 2 C 6 H 2 ]PbCl (7), and the transition metal complex [4-tBu-2,6-{P(O)(OiPr) 2 } 2 C 6 H 2 ]Sn(Cl)-Cr(CO) 5 (8) are reported. The compounds were characterized by 1 H, 13 C, 31 P, 31 P MAS (3), 119 Sn, and 119 Sn MAS (3) NMR spectroscopy, electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (3), Mössbauer spectroscopy (3-5, 8) and single-crystal X-ray diffraction analyses (2, 3-5, 6-8). In contrast to its ethoxy-substituted analogue [4-tBu-2,6-{P(O)-(OEt) 2 } 2 C 6 H 2 ]SnCl, compound 3, like the thiophenolate derivative 6, is monomeric in solution as well as in the solid state. This difference is also manifested by the Mössbauer as well as solid state NMR spectroscopic data. On the other hand, the corresponding organoplumbylene 7 shows a similar chlorido-bridged polymeric structure as its ethoxy-
