title: Template synthesis of benzannulated triphosphacyclononanes--a new class of phosphacrowns via template assisted nucleophilic P-C bond formation.
abstract: A 9-membered triphosphorus macrocycle with o-phenylene backbone functions has been stereoselectively prepared on a CpFe(+) template by two successive nucleophilic attacks of coordinated phosphide on a coordinated o-fluorophenylbiphosphine.
