The reaction of sodium with RPCl2 and PCl3 (12:4:1) in THF gives Na[cyclo‐(P5R4)] [R = iPr (1), Ph (2)], while four equivalents of RPCl2 [R = Ph, 2,4,6‐Me3C6H2 (Mes), tBu] react with ten equivalents of sodium sand or elemental potassium in refluxing THF to yield the compounds [Na2(THF)5(P4Ph4)] (3), [Na2(THF)4(P4Mes4)] (4), and [Na2(THF)4(P4tBu4)] (5), or the potassium salt [K2(THF)6(P4Mes4)] (6). Recrystallizing 6 from 1,4‐dioxane/pentane (1:3) also led to [{K(L)2}2{K(L)}6(P4Mes4)4·0.5THF]∞ (L = 1,4‐dioxane) (7). In the solid state, compounds 3−6 exist as isolated ion‐contact complexes, in which the P4 chain of the (P4R4)2− ligand has a syn arrangement, while a polymeric helical arrangement was observed for 7. A minor product, [{K(pmdeta)(HP3Mes3)}2{K2(P4Mes4)}]·0.25hexane (8), was isolated from the reaction of MesPCl2 and K (1:2.5). Compound 8 contains the first structurally characterized example of a triphosphanide anion, (HP3Mes3)−, besides K2(P4Mes4). (© Wiley‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, 69451 Weinheim, Germany, 2004)
