Abstract: | Inter‐ and intramolecular P/B frustrated Lewis pairs are shown to react with an N‐sulfinylamine to form PNSOB linakages. These species can be regarded as phosphinimine–borane‐stabilized sulfur monoxide complexes, and indeed these species act as sources of SO, effecting the oxidation of PPh3 and delivering SO to [RhCl(PPh3)3] and an N‐heterocyclic carbene. |
