title: ScorpoPhos: a novel phosphine-nitrogen ligand containing a tris(pyrazolyl)borate ligand core.
abstract: A new tris(pyrazolyl)borate ligand bearing phosphine donor groups appended to the 3-position of the pyrazolyl rings is reported, and the hemilabile behaviour of this tris-N,P ligand in coordination with K+, Tl+ and Cu+ ions is investigated.
