title: {Zn3(Et2O)2[(EtO)PO2(C6H5NH)]6.2THF}: a trinuclear zinc amidophosphate with an hourglass structure.
abstract: The reaction of ZnMe2 and the N-substituted phosphoramidic monoester [Et2NH2][(EtO)PO2(C6H5NH)] produces the trinuclear zinc cluster Zn(3)(Et2O)2[(EtO)PO2(C6H5NH)]6.2THF, demonstrating that the P-N bond can survive under mild solvothermal reaction conditions.
