Use of a silyl supported stannylene (<sup>Mes</sup> TerSn(Si<sup>t</sup> Bu<sub>3</sub> ) [<sup>Mes</sup> Ter=2,6-(2,4,6-Me<sub>3</sub> C<sub>6</sub> H<sub>2</sub> )<sub>2</sub> C<sub>6</sub> H<sub>3</sub> ] enables activation of white phosphorus under mild conditions, which is reversible under UV light. The reaction of a silylene chloride with the activated P<sub>4</sub> complex results in facile P-atom transfer. The computational analysis rationalizes the electronic features and high reactivit ...[more]
