A Highly Reactive Geminal P/B Frustrated Lewis Pair: Expanding the Scope to C−X (X=Cl, Br) Bond Activation

The geminal frustrated Lewis pair tBu2PCH2B(Fxyl)2 (1; Fxyl=3,5‐(CF3)2C6H3) is accessible in 65 % yield from tBu2PCH2Li and (Fxyl)2BF. According to NMR spectroscopy and X‐ray crystallography, 1 is monomeric both in solution and in the solid state. The intramolecular P⋅⋅⋅B distance of 2.900(5) Å and...
