The thermolytic decomposition of acyclic phosphoranes, ArnP(OCH2CF3)5-n in aprotic media has been shown by kinetic studies to proceed via rate-limiting ionization of the phosphoranes.Activation parameters, deuterium isotope effects, solvent effects and ρ-values (for n = 3 and n = 1) support this concept which is consistent with the observed rate-sequence of n = 3> n = 2 > n = 1 > n = 0.Key words: Phosphoranes, thermolysis, kinetics, mechanism.
