Isolation of a cyclic intermediate in the reaction of a phosphorus yjide with elemental sulfur: Synthesis, structure, and reactivity of a 1,2 sigma(5)-thiaphosphirane
The reaction of a phosphorus ylide with elemental sulfur gave a pentacoordinate thiaphosphirane, which was characterized by X-ray crystallographic analysis, and it was allowed to react with elemental sulfur resulting in a thiophosphinate.
