The chapter outlines the advances in the chemistry of monocyclic ; fused and polycyclic species and should be read in conjunction with earlier chapters in CHEC II (1996 ; vol. 9 ; p. 971) and CHEC III (2008 ; vol. 14 ; p. 945). New routes to the synthesis of hypervalent cyclic diorganoantimony(III) and diorganobismuth(III) compounds of the general formula [X(CH2C6H4)2]MR (X=RN ; O ; S ; M=Sb ; Bi) and related heterocyclic systems are demonstrated. The reactivity and substituent modification procedures are covered. Also included are sections on theoretical methods and thermodynamic aspects such as aromaticity and thermodynamic stability. Applications of seven-membered and larger rings containing arsenic ; and bismuth in material and medicinal chemistry are discussed.}, HAL_ID = {hal-03906144}, HAL_VERSION = {v1}, }
