Abstract

A series of phosphorus (III) compounds incorporating one or more C6F13 'ponytails' have been prepared as a pool of ligands for coordination and catalytic studies under the fluorous biphase regime. Solubility studies indicate that only ligands with three or more ponytails are preferentially soluble in perfluorocarbon solvents.
