Lewis acid adducts of [PCl2N]3

Inorg Chem. 2005 Sep 19;44(19):6518-20. doi: 10.1021/ic050974y.

Abstract

Reaction of aluminum trichloride or gallium trichloride with the extremely weak base hexachlorotriphosphazene gives adducts in which the group 13 element is bound to a phosphazene nitrogen atom. In solution, the adducts exhibit fluxional behavior. The phosphazene ring of the adducts is distorted into a slight chair conformation.
