Lewis base complexes of methyldihalobismuthines BiMeX2 (X = Cl or Br)

Methyldihalobismuthines, BiMeX2 (X = Cl or Br) prepared from MeLi and a stoichiometric amount of BiX3 in thf, react with 1,10-phenanthroline, 2,2?-bipyridyl or Me2NCH2CH2NMe2 (L?L) in thf or MeCN to give [BiMeX2(L?L)], which are poorly soluble in non-polar solvents. X-Ray structures of [BiMeBr2(L?L)...
