Transition metal phosphinimide complexes
Transition metal phosphinimide complexes are metal complexes that contain phosphinimide ligands of the general formula NPR3− (R = organic substituent). Several coordination modes have been observed, including terminal and various bridging geometries. In the terminal bonding mode the M-N=P core is usually linear but some are quite bent. The preferred coordination type varies with the oxidation state and coligands on the metal and the steric and electronic properties of the R groups on phosphorus. Many transition metal phosphinimide complexes have been well-developed and, more recently, main group phosphinimide complexes have been synthesized.
