Compound Ph 3 As(OTf) 2 as a pentacoordinated As V Lewis acid readily forms dicationic Lewis acid/base adducts upon addition of various Lewis bases. It also represents a stronger chloride‐abstracting agent than Me 3 SiOTf and facilitates the reductive coupling of PCl 3 in the presence of AsPh 3 to the unprecedented cation [P 7 (AsPh 3 ) 3 ] 3+ as triflate salt. This crystallographically characterized nortricyclane‐type cation represents a P 7 R 3 ‐derivative with the most electron‐withdrawing substituents, resulting in a pronounced effect on the structural parameters of the P 7 core.
