Abstract

Salts of diphosphoniumdiselenide dications ([R3PSeSePR3][OTf](2)) have been isolated from reactions of trialkylphosphine selenides with triphenylantimony bistriflate. The redox process is speculated to proceed via a cationic coordination complex [Ph3SbL2][OTf](2) (L=Me3PSe, iPr(3)PSe), which is also formed in the reaction of [R3PSeSePR3][OTf](2) with Ph3Sb. The observations indicate that the reductive elimination of [R3PSeSePR3](2+) from [Ph3Sb(SePR3)(2)](2+) is reversible through the oxidative addition of [R3PSeSePR3](2+) to Ph3Sb.
