Abstract

Attempted metallations of the expectedly acidic sulfonylamide (PSA) in the presence of the phosphine oxide HMPA all fail, giving instead the very stable 1:1 adduct PSA·HMPA; its solid-state structure consists of layers of PSA molecules linked by intercalated HMPA molecules, such aggregation resulting in particular from a large number of significant C-H⋯O hydrogen-bonding interactions per PSA·HMPA unit.
