BiH3
and compounds derived from it by substituting one, two or three hydrogen atoms by
hydrocarbyl groups:
R3Bi,
RBiH2,
R2BiH
(
R ≠
H )
are called primary, secondary and tertiary bismuthines, respectively. A specific bismuthine
is preferably named as a substituted bismuthane, e.g.
(CH3)3Bi
trimethylbismuthane.
