Abstract

The selective synthesis of the zinc-acetato-phosphinidene cluster [Zn₆(μ₃-PSiMe₃)₄(OAc)₄(NC₅H₅)₅] 1 is presented. The cluster serves as a stable, single-source precursor to yield soluble zinc phosphide nanoparticles via P–Si bond activation and AcOSiMe₃ elimination when heated in oleylamine or other donor solvents.
