Oxidative addition reactions of (Dipp2NacNac)Ga with the primary silylphosphanes R2R'Si-PH2 in toluene led to phospha-gallanes (Dipp2NacNac)GaH(PHSiR2R’); R=R’=Me (1), R=Me, R’=Thex (2), R=R’=iPr (3) and R=Ph, R’=tBu (4). The same reaction starting from diphosphane iPr2Si(PH2)2 yields digallane {(Dipp2NacNac)GaH(PH)}2(SiiPr2) (5 a). In contrast, hypersilylphosphane resulted elimination (Me3Si)3...
