title: Stable P-N bridged cyclophosphazenes with a spiro or ansa arrangement.
abstract: Deprotonation reactions of cyclophosphazenes containing secondary amino groups in the side chain lead to a doubly bridged tricyclophosphazene structure or to a cyclophosphazene-cyclophosphazane-cyclophosphazene compound, which are very stable and could be used as building blocks for larger structures.
