Abstract

This review paper covers the recent (2010–2017) synthetic modifications of the water soluble cage-like aminophosphine ligand 1,3,5-triaza-7-phosphatricyclo[3.3.1.1]decane (PTA) and their application in coordination chemistry, with a focus on applications in the fields of selected catalytic processes, 1D–3D materials and mention to novel use as anticancer and antimicrobial agents in medicinal inorganic chemistry.
