Abstract

Reaction of aziridine with N3P3(NPPh3)Cl5 (1) affords the derivatives N3P3(NPPh3)Cl5-n(NC2H4)n (n = 1-5) whose structures are elucidated by NMR spectroscopy. The X-Ray crystal structure of N3P3(NPPh3)(NC2H4)5 shows a new conformation of the — NPPh3 group which would explain the upfield shift of the aziridino protons at the ≡P(NC2H4)(NPPh3) site. © 1984, Walter de Gruyter.
