A “double benzyne” reaction between 1,3-dichloro-2-iodobenzene and 2,4,6-t-Bu₃C₆H₂MgBr followed by the addition of iodine led to 2,6-(2,4,6-t-Bu₃C₆H₂)₂C₆H₃I (HTBTI) in 65% yield. Lithiation of HTBTI with Li-t-Bu gave Li(Et₂O)₂HTBT from which HTBTSH, HTBTN₃, HTBTNH₂, and HTBTOH were prepared. An X-ray structure of W(OHTBT)₂Cl₄ shows that the two HTBTO ligands are trans to one another with the t-Bu₃C6H₂ groups on one HTBTO interdigitated with the t-Bu₃C6H₂ groups on the other HTBTO.
