A new soluble In + source containing the very weakly coordinating anion [Al{OC(CF 3 ) 3 } 4 ] − was developed. In reaction with a P 2 ligand complex an unprecedented tetracationic aggregate is formed featuring a short In⋅⋅⋅In distance (see picture). Polymeric strands arising from a reaction with a cyclo ‐P 3 ligand complex exhibit a novel coordination mode for P 3 units.
