Phosphinine-based ligands: Recent developments in coordination chemistry and applications

Zusammenfassung

This review covers the progress that has been made during the last 10 years in the coordination chemistry of 1-phosphinines, 1,4-diphosphinines and 1,3,5-triphosphinines and related ligands. There is particular emphasis on the reactivity and application of phosphinine-containing transition metal complexes in relation to the electronic, structural and coordination properties of the corresponding phosphorus heterocycle.
