ABSTRACT
We report a one-step synthesis of the phosphine, PPh(2)(i)C(3)F(7) from commercially available precursors. The stereoelectronic properties of the phosphine were probed by coordination to transition metals. Mo(CO)(5)PPh(2)(i)C(3)F(7) was synthesised and the synthesis and structure of trans-PtCl(2)(PPh(2)(i)C(3)F(7))(2) are described. PPh(2)(i)C(3)F(7) was found to be a bulky electron-withdrawing ligand.

ABSTRACT
Tris(perfluoroalkyl)phosphines, of interest as tunable alternatives to the carbon monoxide ligand, can be synthesised by the nucleophile mediated reaction of perfluoroalkyltrimethylsilanes with triphenylphosphite; the method can be extended to diphosphines.
