The synthesis of heroallenes, compounds in which one, two, or even three carbon atoms of an allene have been replaced by heavier elements of group 14 (Si, Ge, Sn) or 15 (P, As, Sb) have constituted a new challenge in organometallic chemistry. Due to the presence of two unsaturations, such heteroalle...
