32. Proper sampling of the expected plethora of possible ion pairs (contact or solvent-shared) would require, e.g., large-scale molecular dynamics simulations, which are beyond the scope of this study.
33. At the DFT level employed, the tbp character of the F-bearing P atom is clearly apparent, both from the optimised C-PF bond angles (ca. 94°) and a Wiberg bond index (, K. B. Wiberg, Tetrahedron 1968, 24, 1083) of 0.48 between both P atoms, indicative of substantial covalent overlap.
