Photochemical ring opening of {2-[bis(tri-methylsilyl)methyl]-3-phenyl-2H- azaphosphirene-kP}-pentacarbonyltungsten(0) (1) in diethyl ether in the presence oftert-butyl isocyanide (2) yields the η1-aza3-phosphaallene complex 4 at low temperature (-30°C), the formation of which is explained via a 1,1-addition of 2 with the transiently formed terminal phosphinidene complex 3. Complex 4 decomposed slowly at ambient temperature to furnish the [bis(trimethylsilyl)methyl]cyanophosphane complex 5 and isobutene. The same result was obtained via thermal ring opening of complex 1 at high temperature. In contrast, thermolysis of 1 in the presence of cyclohexyl isocyanide (7) afforded the N-cyclohexyl-substituted η1-1-aza-3-phosphaallene complex 8. Complexes 4, 5, and 8 were unambiguously characterized by NMR and IR spectroscopy; the structure of complex 5 was established by X-ray crystal structure analysis. The structure of 5 and the energetics of its formation via decomposition of 4 were studied by DFT calculations, thus confirming the proposed reaction course.

Heating a 2H-azaphosphirene complex in the solid state afforded the first head-to-tail dimer, a 2,5-dihydro-2,5-diphosphapyrimidine complex, a η1-diphosphene complex and another complex having low-coordinated phosphorus centers; whereas the latter was detected only by 31P NMR spectroscopy, the dimer was isolated and structurally characterized.
