Abstract

It is now well established that the replacement of nitrogen by phosphorus atoms in aromatic structures causes dramatic changes in the resulting electronic properties. 1 Thus, molecules such as phosphinines show a poorer σ-donating ability but an enhanced electron π- accepting power not only with respect to their nitrogen counterparts, pyridines, but also with respect to phosphines. The combination of these two effects proved to be particularly ...
