The first synthesis of tri-substituted guanidinium triflates has been achieved by a simple one-step procedure from readily available amines, carbodiimides and Zn(OTf)2. X-ray analysis revealed they adopt 1-D chain-like or novel 3-D hydrogen-bonded networks, which are not reported previously in the solid structure of guanidinium salts. Isolation of a binuclear zinc complex and its subsequent carbodiimide insertion provide the insight into the mechanism for the formation of guanidinium triflates.
