Proazaphosphatranes, also known as Verkade's superbases, are among the strongest nonionic bases available. Their extreme basicity derives in part from their ability to form a P−N transannulation upon interaction of the P atom with an electrophile. Although haloazaphosphatrane cations of the form [XP(RNCH 2 CH 2 ) 3 N] + have previously been reported for X = Cl, Br, and I, no fluoroazaphosphatranes (X = F) have been prepared. Unlike treatment with Cl 2 , Br 2 , I 2 , and surrogates thereof, reaction of proazaphosphatranes with XeF 2 results in decomposition. Analysis of the decomposition products suggested that fluoride ions may be the destructive agent. However, oxidation of a proazaphosphatrane/BPh 3 frustrated Lewis pair affords [FP(RNCH 2 CH 2 ) 3 N][FBPh 3 ]. Systematic trends in the experimental and computed NMR and structural data are considered. A computational analysis suggests that the transannular P−N distance varies as a result of the flexibility of the molecules and their capacity to deform in the solid state.
