The first examples of neutral and cationic bismuth complexes bearing β‐ketoiminato ligands were isolated by employing salt metathesis route. BiCl 3 reacts with [O=C(Me)]CH[C(Me)N(K)Ar] ( 1 ) resulting in a homoleptic β‐ketoiminato bismuth complex Bi[{O=C(Me)}CH{C(Me)NAr}] 3 ( 2 ). The reaction between BiCl 3 and [(CH 2 ) 2 {N(K)C(Me)CHC(Me)=O} 2 ] ( 3 ) leads to the formation of a cationic bismuth complex [Bi{(CH 2 ) 2 (NC(Me)CHC(Me)=O) 2 }] 4 [Bi 2 Cl 10 ] ( 4 ).
