β¦ Synopsis
Whereas ion-pairing has been long recognized as playing a key role in organometallic chemistry, the zwitterionic feature of organotransition metal complexes has only recently become an influential factor in the design of cationic metal catalysts. The prospective situation of reversed polarity, with metal fragments formally bearing an integral negative charge, may be envisaged. Besides the well-documented zwitterionic complexes derived from phosphonium ylides, other examples of zwitterionic organometallate complexes, formulated as such on the basis of structural, spectroscopic,

The title compounds (and, in part, their seleno analogs) result from the oxidation of an ylidylphosphine and also from the addition of ylides to a perthiophosphonic anhydride. They can be deprotonated and alkylated to give anions or cations, respectively. The reaction with phenacyl bromide opens a
