A series of tri (9-anthryl) phosphorus compounds including tri (9-anthryl) methylphosphonium iodide (2b), tri (9-anthryl) phophine oxide (2c), and tri (9-anthryl) difluorophosphorane (2d) have been newly synthesized from the already reported tri (9- anthryl) phosphine (2a) and their photophysical properties including UV–vis absorption and fluorescence spectra have been determined in order to elucidate their coordination ...
