Near C 3 symmetry is displayed by the 19‐atom In‐P polyhedron that forms the central structural unit in the title compound (see structure), which was synthesized by reaction of InCl 3 with PEt 3 and PhP(SiMe 3 ) 2 . In addition to In–P bonds, the cage has In–In and P–P bonds. Six terminal chloro ligands and three PEt 3 ligands surround the cluster core which itself encloses a central chloride anion.
