Abstract
The perfluorinated silylphosphinidene, F3SiP, in the triplet ground state is generated by the reaction of laser-ablated silicon atoms with PF3 in solid neon and argon matrices. The reactions proceed with the initial formation of a silicon trifluorophosphine complex, F3PSi, in the triplet ground state, and a more stable inserted phosphasilene, FPSiF2, in the singlet ground state upon deposition. The trifluorosilylphosphinidene was formed through F-migration reactions of FPSiF2 and F3PSi following a two-state mechanism under irradiation with visible light (λ = 470 nm) and full arc light (λ > 220 nm), respectively. High-level quantum-chemical methods support the identification of F3PSi, FPSiF2, and F3SiP by matrix-isolation IR spectroscopy.
