Abstract
The tripodal triphosphide H3CC[CH2P(Ph)(Li)](3) reacts with MeSiCl3 to yield the triphosphinosilane H3CC[CH2P(Ph)](3)SiMe, 2a. The analogous reaction with PBr3 produces the triphosphinophosphine H3CC[CH2P(Ph)]( 3)P, 2b. The bicyclo[2.2.2]octane-type cage structure of 2 is revealed by NMR data as well as X-ray analyses. 2b is one of the rare examples of a compound with mere C-3-symmetry.
