Phospines and related P-C-bonded compounds; Tervalent phosphorus acid derivatives; Phosphine chalgogenides, phosphonium salts and P-ylides; Quinquevalent phosphorus acids; Nucleotides and nucleic acids: oligo- and polynucleotides; Pentacoordinated and hexacoordinated compounds; Phosphazenes

Organophosphorus Chemistry provides a comprehensive review of the literature. Coverage includes phosphines and their chalcogenides, phosphonium salts, low coordination number phosphorus compounds, penta- and hexa-coordinated compounds, tervalent phosphorus acid derivatives, quinquevalent phosphorus acids, nucleotides and nucleic acids, ylides and related compounds, phosphazenes and the application of physical methods in the study of organophosphorus compounds. This Specialist Periodical Report will be of value to research workers in universities, government and industrial research organisations whose work involves the use of organophosphorus compounds. It provides a concise but comprehensive survey of a vast field of study, with a wide variety of applications, enabling the reader to keep abreast of the latest developments in their specialist fields.
