N2  - A 31P n.m.r, study shows that the species [YLn3+ where n = 4,5,6 for L = OP(NMe2), or OPPh3 n = 5,6 for L = OPMe(0Me)Ph are the major yttrium(III) species formed with these ligands in CD2CI2 solution. A detailed ligand exchange study of the latter species shows the rate law to be: exchange rate = 6(kl+k2[OPMe(OMe)Ph])[Y(OPMe(OMe)Ph)63+] where k1(215 K) = 312±13 s-1, &#916;H1&#8225; = 3l&#903;4 ± 1.4 kJmol-1, &#916;S1&#8225; = -48&#903;4±6.6 J K-1 mol-1, k2(215 K) = 455 ± 31 dm3 mol-1 s-1, &#916;H2&#8225; = 35&#903;2±2.8 kJmol-1 and &#916;S2&#8225; = -27&#903;6 ± 12&#903;7 JK-1 mol-1, where the k1 and k2 terms are assigned to D and A mechanisms respectively. The rate of OP(OMe)3 and OPMe(OMe)2 exchange on yttrium(III) is found to be in the fast exchange limit of the n.m.r. time scale and thus the coordination numbers of the yttrium(III) species formed with these ligands are not directly determined in solution. Qualitatively it appears that the coordination number and the lability of the yttrium(III) species increases as the size of the ligand decreases. The isolation of the crystalline species [Y(OP(NMe2)3)5ClO4](ClO4)2, [Y(OPPh3)4](ClO4)3, [Y(OPMe(OMe)Ph)6] (ClO4)3, [Y(OP(OMe)3)6](ClO4)3 and [Y(OPMe(OMe)2)6](ClO4)3 is reported.
