Reversible complexation of isocyanides by the distannyne Ar'SnSnAr' (Ar' = C(6)H(3)-2,6(C(6)H(3)-2,6-(i)Pr(2))(2)).
The reaction of the distannyne Ar'SnSnAr' (Ar' = C(6)H(3)-2,6(C(6)H(3)-2,6-(i)Pr(2))(2)) with tert-butyl or mesityl isocyanide afforded the bis-adducts Ar'SnSnAr'(CNBu(t))(2) or Ar'SnSnAr' (CNMes)(2) in which the isonitriles are reversibly bound under ambient conditions.
