Summary The new tertiary phosphine t-13u2(2-MeO-5-MeC6H3CH2)P, L, was prepared by the base treatment of the phosphonium salt, LH+I−, which was in turn prepared from t-Bu2PH, 2-MeO-5-MeC6H3CH2Cl and sodium iodide. This phosphine, L, reacts with various chloro-rhodium and -iridium species without O-demethylation. This contrasts with the behaviour of t-Bu2PC6H4OMe-2 which demethylates readily on similar treatment to give chelate complexes. The completely different behaviour between this new 2-methoxybenzylphosphine, L, and the 2-anisylphosphine, t-Bu2PC6H4OMe-2, is explained in terms of steric effects.
