NMR enantiodifferentiation of triphenylphosphonium salts by chiral hexacoordinated phosphate anions

BINPHAT anion—rather than TRISPHAT—is an efficient NMR chiral shift reagent for triphenylphosphonium salts containing stereogenic centers on the aliphatic side-chain. BINPHAT—rather than TRISPHAT—anion is an efficient NMR (1H and 31P) chiral shift reagent for chiral triphenylphosphonium salts.
