Abstract
When bis( o-trifluoromethylphenyl)dithiophosphinic acid ( 1) is dissolved in methanol, crystals of bis( o-trifluoromethylphenyl)dithiophosphinic methyl ester ( 2) are formed. The structure of dithiophosphinic methyl ester ( 2) has been characterized via single-crystal X-ray diffraction and multinuclear NMR studies. Compound 2 is remarkable in that the dithiophosphinic (PS 2) core is preserved during this transformation. The transformation to 2 suggests that the o-trifluoromethylphenyl groups on phosphorus assist in retaining the PS 2 core, possibly by steric hindrance.
