Synthesis of a triethylammonium salt of a spirophosphorane containing a P–SH bond
Abstract
The triethylammomium salt of the phosphoranethiolate (3) has been isolated from the reaction of elemental sulphur with the conjugate base of the parent hydridophosphorane; its structure has been established by elemental analysis and n.m.r. (31P, 1H, 13C) and i.r. spectroscopy.
