Abstract

Nucleophilic substitution of [MesTe(TeMes 2 )] + (1a) with Ph 3 E is the key to the preparation of the heteroleptic 1:1 Lewis pair complexes [MesTe(EPh 3 )] + (E = P, As, Sb), which are best described as phosphonium, arsonium, and stibonium cations, respectively. ... The homoleptic 1:1 Lewis pair (LP) complex [MesTe(TeMes 2 )]O 3 SCF 3 (1) featuring the cation [MesTe(TeMes 2 )] + (1a) was obtained by the reaction of Mes 2 Te with HO 3 SCF 3 . The reaction of 1 ...
