Depending on the nucleophilicity of the transition metal anion used, but also on the methylene carbon substituents [1a: (SiMe3)2; 1b: (Ph)-SiMe3], a different stability of the (methylenephosphanyl)1-metal complexes is observed, which results in a broad spectrum of reactivities. As demonstrated by the reactions of the (methylenephosphanyl)metal complexes with sulfonic acid derivatives (10a-c), diverse transition metal complexes (11a-c), as well as chalcogenes (14a-c, 15), a change in the reactivity is observed, indicating a transition from an olefinic to a carbenic character of the methylenephosphane. In comparison to the phenyl-substituted derivatives 4a-i the bis(trimethyl)1-substituted species 3a-j exhibit an increased reactivity. This is reflected in the easy decarbonylation of 3a-d to the phosphavinylidene complexes 12a-d.deinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessMethylenphosphane , Phospheniumkomplexe , Anorganische Synthese540article
