Di-π-methane rearrangement in 1-phosphabarrelenes: formation and reactivity of an unprecedented 2-phosphasemibullvalene
The photolysis of 1-phosphabarrelenes, generated from 3,5-diarylphosphinines and benzyne in a [4 + 2] cycloaddition reaction, affords hitherto unknown 2-phosphasemibullvalenes via di-π-methane rearran...

Cyclo‐P5− Revisited: The Surprisingly Stable Uncoordinated Pentaphospholide Anion
The addition of [2.2.2]cryptand to alkali metal heptaphosphides M3P7 (M = Na, K) leads to the formation of the salts [M([2.2.2]cryptand)][cyclo-P5]. Although the cyclo-P5− anion is spectroscopically ...

Moritz Ernst has won a poster prize at the European Workshop on Pnictogen Chemistry in Innsbruck last week for his poster on our pulicaton on the polychloride-enabled synthesis of [NEt3Me][PCl6] (doi.org/10.1039/D4CC...). Congratulations! Thanks again to the organisers of this amazing conference!
A polychloride-enabled synthesis of [NEt3Me][PCl6] serving as a potential PCl3-storage and PCl5-reagent
Reaction of the ionic liquid [NEt3Me][Cl3] with white phosphorus (P4) gives, quantitatively, hexachlorophosphate [NEt3Me][PCl6]. This compound shows similar reactivity as PCl5, as confirmed for the re...
