The reaction of [LWCl] (3) [L = N(CH2CH2NiPr)3] with LiE(SiMe3)2 (E = P, As, Sb) yields the novel, neutral pnictido-bridged complexes [LW = E = WL] (5-7). By following the reaction, which starts from the LiP-(SiMe3)2 derivative, by 31P NMR spectroscopy, the formation of an intermediate with a terminal pnictido ligand can be ruled out. The paramagnetic complexes 5-7 are comprehensively spectroscopically characterised. The X-ray structure analysis of the heterocumulenes 5-7 reveals a linear structure in which the two W-"tren" units bind to the central pnictido atom in a staggered conformation ["tren" = tren-based ligand; tren = tris(2-aminoethyl)-amine. When N2 is used as the inert gas in the synthesis of the starting material [N(CH2CH2NNp)3WCl] [Np = CH2C-(CH3)3], the complex [[N(CH2CH2NNp)3]W2(mu, eta 1: eta 1-N2)] (4) is formed as a side product. Complex 4 possesses a hydrazido(4-) (N2(4-)) ligand connected by two tungsten-"tren" moieties.
