Abstract

The reactivity of carbenesl and silylenes2 has occupied a prominent position in chemical research for a considerable time, and it is likely that it will continue to do so. Phosphenium ions3 (R, P+) constitute a class of molecules that may be considered as isoelectronic to carbenes and~ ilylenes.~ Although the synthesis3 and electr~ nic~~,~ and molecular5 structures of phosphenium ions have been the subject of intense investigations, their ...
