BZIMPY-supported phosphorus(
v
) dications as P(
v
) fragment transfer reagents
Michael A. Land, William P. Howlett, Tyler J. Hannah, Katherine N. Robertson, Charles L. B. Macdonald Chemical oxidation of phosphorus(
iii
) dications stabilized by the 2,6-bis(benzimidazole-2-yl)pyridine ligand results in phosphorus(
v
) dications. The lability of this ligand enables the facile transfer of cationic P(
v
) fragments to other ligands.
