Abstract:

The title compound, (C(6)H(5)CH(2))(3)PO, is an organic tertiary phosphine oxide. The molecule has threefold symmetry, with the P-O bond along the threefold axis. Main dimensions include P-O 1.488 (4), P-C 1.823 (3) A and O-P-C 114.7 (1) degrees. The crystals were accidentally obtained when preparing complexes of nickel(II) with dibenzylphosphine.
