Abstract: The phosphorus to phosphorus bond is an intriguing area of chemistry which became of significant interest back in the 1960's. Our research has explored two new phosphorus to phosphorus bonds. The first is in hexacoordinate phosphorus compounds, compounds which have a negatively charged central phosphorus center. Original work was done in this area by adding mono- and bidentate nitrogen ligands to a pentacoordinated phosphorus center. In our project we have added different mono- and bidentate nitrogen ligands along with mono- and bidentate phosphorus ligands to two phosphorus centered precursors. The second new type of phosphorus to phosphorus bond is in phosphonium amide analogues, amides in which the amide nitrogen and carbonyl carbon are replaced by phosphorus atoms. These compounds were made by adding mono-, bi- and tridentate phosphorus ligands to several phosphoryl compounds. Each compound synthesized in both studies were characterized by proton, carbon, and phosphorus NMR.
