Abstract

Palladium zero converts triphenylbismuth quantitatively to diphenyl and metallic bismuth. Many other derivatives of Bi (III) and Bi (V) are similarly transformed to diaryls in excellent yield. Similar reactions with triphenylantimony and with perphenyl lead derivatives suggest that a number of non-transition metal elements should show similar behaviour. Acid chlorides also react under mild conditions with triphenylbismuth under catalysis by ...
