Abstract
Oxidative addition of tetrachloro-ortho-benzoquinone to lambda(3)-cycl otriphosphazanes, [EtNP(OR)](3) results in an unprecedented ring contr action-rearrangement to give diazadiphosphetidines (EtN)(2)[P(OR)(O2C6 Cl4)] [P(O2C6Cl4)-[N(Et)P(OR)(2)}] (R = C6H4Br-4 or C(6)H(3)Me(2)-2,6) , a process indicated to be thermodynamically favourable on the basis of PM3 calculations.
