Butyltriphenylphosphonium bromide

E. W. Czerwinski

Abstract: At 106  K, the three C atoms closest to P in the butyl group of the title compound, C₂₂H₂₄BrP, are in an extended conformation. However, unlike the longer alkylamine substituted triphenylphosphonium compounds, the terminal torsion angle in the butyl group is gauche. The phenyl rings are in the propeller configuration usually found in this family of triphenylphosphonium compounds.
