tBu2P?PP(X)tBu2-Ylide (X = Cl,Br, I) durch Halogenierung von [tBu2P]2P?SiMe3

tBu₂P? P?P(X)tBu₂ Ylides (X = Cl, Br, I) by Halogenation of [tBu₂P]₂P? SiMe₃ [tBu₂P]₂P? SiMe₃ 1 with halogenating agents as Br₂, I₂, Br-succinimide, CCl₄, CBr₄, CI₄ or C₂Cl₆ via cleavage of the Si? P bond in 1 produces the ylides tBu₂P? P?P(X)tBu₂ (X = Cl, Br, I). This proceeds independent from the formerly known pathway – [tBu₂P]₂PLi + 1,2-dibromoethane – and shows that the Li-phosphide must not be present as a necessary requirement for the formation of ylides.
