title: Noncyclic [10-S-5] sulfuranide dioxide salts with three S-C bonds: a new class of stable hypervalent compounds.
abstract: Phenyl triflate reacts with CF3SiMe3/Q+F- (Q+ = [K(18-crown-6)]+, Me4N+) and (Me2N)3S+Me3SiF2- to afford the first noncyclic [10-S-5] sulfuranide dioxide salts, [(CF3)3SO2]-Q+, with three S-C bonds, whose molecular structure was determined by X-ray crystallography.
