A new reaction pathway in organophosphorus chemistry: competing S(N)2 and AE' pathways for nucleophilic attack at a phosphorus-carbon cage compound.
(Chemical Equation Presented) Competition: A combination of 31P NMR spectroscopic and calculational studies have shown that nucleophilic substitution in the phosphorus-carbon cage compound ClP3(CtBu) 2 occurs through competing SN2- and AE′-type reaction pathways (see scheme for model compound ClP3(C...
