A potential precursor for the production of high‐temperature superconductors , the loose dimer 1 is bound by two asymmetric alkoxide bridges (a monomeric unit is shown right). The Bi atoms in 1 are surrounded in a distorted pseudo‐octahedral fashion by one bridging and two terminal alkoxide ligands and a THF molecule. Each Bi atom also has a stereochemically active lone pair of electrons.
