This work expands on the recent synthesis and reactivity of the two-coordinate P(III)-containing dication [((Ph3P)2C)P(NiPr2)]2+ (3a2+). Two additional dications of general formula [((RPh2P)2C)P(NR′2)]2+ (3b2+, R = 1/2 (CH2)3, R′ = iPr; 3c2+, R = Ph, R′ = Cy) have been prepared. Solution and solid-s...
