Molybdenum complex 1 and white phosphorus react smoothly at 28°C to give 2 with a terminal phosphido (P 3− ) ligand. The crystal structure of 2 reveals a monomer with a Mo–P triple bond (2.119(4) Å). Treatment of 2 with mesityl azide gives a complex with a terminal iminophosphenium (PNR + ) ligand; treatment with elemental sulfur leads to a phosphorus monosulfide (PS) complex, R = C(CD 3 ) 2 CH 3 , Ar = 3,5‐C 6 H 3 Me 2 .
