Maiden voyage: New arsenic-, antimony- and bismuth-donor reagents (1 bd) are used in a one-pot synthesis of cyclic arsanes, stibanes and bismutanes through a procedure in which the simultaneous formation of three C[BOND]As, C[BOND]Sb or C[BOND]Bi bonds is achieved. At the end of the reaction, the element-donor reagent can be easily re-formed “in situ” and recycled, as in a catalytic process.
