There has been much interest in the synthesis and properties of doubly bonded systems between heavier Group 15 elements, i. e. heavier analogues of azo-compounds (dipnictenes), from the viewpoints of fundamental and material chemistry. Although such double-bond compounds between heavier main group elements are known to be highly reactive, too much so to be isolated as stable compounds, a number of reports on the synthesis of kinetically stabilized diphosphenes (RP=PR), diarsenes (RA=AsR), and phosphaarsenes (RP=AsR) bearing bulky substituent have been published since 1980. We have also succeeded in the synthesis of the first stable distibene (RSb=SbR) and dibismuthene (RBi=BiR) by taking advantage of efficient steric protection groups, 2,4,6- tris[bis(trimethylsilyl)methyl]phenyl (Tbt) and 2,6-bis[bis(trimethylsilyl) methyl]-4-[tris(trimethylsilyl)methyl]phenyl (Bbt), and revealed their structures and properties systematically. Thus, the doubly bonded compounds between heavier Group 15 elements are no longer imaginary species but are those with real existence which are stable, even in the case of the heaviest non-radioactive element bismuth, when they are appropriately protected by bulky substituents. This Perspective describes our research on the chemistry of kinetically stabilized double-bond compounds between heavier Group 15 elements.

Deselenation of 1,3,5-triselena-2,4,6-tristibane bearing 2,4,6-tris[bis(trimethylsilyl)methyl]phenyl (denoted as Tbt) groups in the presence of 1,3-butadienes resulted in the formation of the corresponding [1+4]-cycloadducts of a sterically hindered stibi
