31P NMR spectroscopic investigations of low-coordinated multiple bonded PN systems

Abstract

In this chapter, we attempt to give a systematic analysis of the influence on the 31P chemical shift and coupling 1JPN in terms of substituent effects, double-bond stereochemistry, and molecular dynamics for iminaphosphines and related compounds containing partial phosphorus-nitrogen triple-bond character. Although the main focus is on properties in the isotropic phase, reflecting that the majority of measurements were made in solution, the tensorial properties of the chemical shift as obtained from solid-state NMR measurements are also mentioned.
