Abstract

Two phosphaalkene radical cations 1^•+ and 2^•+ have been reported. 1^•+ is stable in the solid state and has been structurally characterized. 2^•+ only remains persistent in solution. 1•⁺ is described as a phosphorus-centered radical, while 2•⁺ as a delocalized radical with little contribution from phosphorus.
