title: Diphenyldichlorophosphonium trichloride-chlorine solvate 1:1, [PPh2Cl2]+Cl(3)(-).Cl2: an ionic form of diphenyltrichlorophosphorane. Crystal structures of [PPh2Cl2]+Cl(3)(-).Cl2 and [(PPh2Cl2)+]2[InCl5](2-).
abstract: An ionic form of diphenyltrichlorophosphorane, namely, diphenyldichlorophosphonium trichloride isolated as a dichlorine solvate (1), was obtained by treating PPh(2)Cl(3) with excess chlorine. The identity of this species was established by single-crystal X-ray analysis and (31)P, (1)H, and (35)Cl NMR and Raman spectra. Bis(diphenyldichlorophosphonium) pentachloroindate (2) was obtained by the reaction of diphenyltrichlorophosphorane with indium trichloride in dichloromethane for comparison purposes. Its identity was determined by (31)P NMR spectra and single-crystal X-ray analysis.
