We report cationic complexes of arsenic and antimony with the tris(2-pyridyl)phosphine ligand. Chloride ion abstraction from the main group halide using TMSOTf in presence of the ligand gives [P(Pyr)3Pn][OTf]3, in which the trication adopts a Janus Head type complex with a C3v symmetric cage structure and two apical lone pairs.
