(Lithiomethyl)diphenylarsane oxide (1) reacts with CuCl2 to give 1,2-bis(diphenylarsinyl)ethane (2a, 64percent) which is reduced by NaBH4 or LiAlH4 to the monoxide (3a, 88percent) or diarsane (4, ca. 100percent), respectively.The monolithiation products of 2a and 3a in each case decompose at low temperature affording diphenylvinylarsane oxide (6; 76 or 85percent, respectively).
