Mechanism of phosphinidene complex arylation by arylboronic acids

The arylation reaction of terminal phosphinidene complexes [RP-W(CO)5] by arylboronic acids is very sensitive to steric hindrance and the electronic properties of the substituents on the aryl ring. On the basis of DFT calculations and additional experiments, it seems that the mechanism involves firs...
