The crystal structure of the title compound as its n-hexane solvate, bis(μ3-di-tert-butylphosphino)1:2:3 κ3P; 2:3:4 κ3P-bis(μ2-di-tert-butylphosphino)XX1:2 κ2P; 3:4 κ2P-bis(tetrahydrofuran)-1 κO; 4 κO-tetralithium, [Li4(CH8H18P)4(C4H8O)2].C6H14, has been redetermined to improved precision using diffractometer data at 213 K, resulting in more accurate bond distances and angles with reduced standard deviations. Furthermore, the relatively high R values (R = 0.10, wR = 0.13) of the previous structure determination at room temperature [Jones, Stuart & Wright (1983). J. Am. Chem. Soc. 105, 7459-7460] were caused by the omission of the molecule of solvent n-hexane, which was not localized. The inclusion of this solvent molecule reduced the R value to 0.0552.
