Sulfur monoxide bears similarities to molecular oxygen, but unlike O 2 , SO is unstable on Earth and only found in outer space. In their Communication on page 809 ff., D. W. Stephan and co‐workers show that P/B frustrated Lewis pairs react with an N ‐sulfinylamine to form PNSOB linkages. These species can be regarded as phosphinimine–borane‐stabilized sulfur monoxide complexes, and they act as sources of SO, effecting the oxidation of PPh 3 and delivering SO to various acceptors.
