Triphenylphosphine phenylimide is the
Ph = C6H5). It is a white solid that is soluble in organic solvents. The compound is a prototype of a large class of Staudinger reagents, resulting from the Staudinger reaction
.
The phosphine imides were first prepared in the laboratory of Nobelist
phenylazide. [1]
