Abstract
AbstractThe reactive intramolecular frustrated Lewis pair (FLP) Mes2PCH2CH2B(C6F5)2 reacts rapidly with thionyl chloride to yield the zwitterionic chlorination product [Mes2PCl+]CH2–CH2[BCl(C6F5)2–]. Analogous zwitterionic products were obtained by the reaction of the FLP with chlorine or bromine. Compounds [Mes2PX+]CH2CH2[BX(C6F5)2–] (X = Cl, Br) were characterized by X‐ray crystal structure analyses.
