Tris(benzoimidazol)amine (L) complexes of pnictogen(iii) and pnictogen(v) cations and assessment of the [LP] 3+ /[LPF 2 ] 3+ redox couple

Tris(benzoimidazol)amine (L) complexes of pnictogen(iii) and pnictogen(v) cations and assessment of the [LP] 3+ /[LPF 2 ] 3+ redox couple

A series of cationic complexes involving a pnictogen(iii) (Pn = P, As, Sb) centre and the tetradentate ligand tris((1-ethyl-benzoimidazol-2-yl)methyl)amine (BIMEt ) have been synthesized and comprehensively characterized. Oxidation of [P(BIMEt )] with XeF provides access to [PF (BIMEt )] representin...

Zusammenfassung:A series of cationic complexes involving a pnictogen(iii) (Pn = P, As, Sb) centre and the tetradentate ligand tris((1-ethyl-benzoimidazol-2-yl)methyl)amine (BIMEt ) have been synthesized and comprehensively characterized. Oxidation of [P(BIMEt )] with XeF provides access to [PF (BIMEt )] representing the first structurally characterized example of a phosphorus(v) centred trication.
