Abstract: The title compound, [Li₂(C₁₂H₂₈P₃)₂(C₄H₁₀O)]_n, is a by-product of the reaction of [(Et₂PhP)₂PtCl₂] with ⁱPr₂P-P(SiMe₃)Li in tetrahydrofuran. It is the second coordination polymer among known triphosphane-lithium salts. Of the two independent Li atoms, one is tetrahedrally coordinated, whereas the second has a trigonal environment.
