Relating alkaline stability to the structure of quaternary phosphonium cations

Abstract

A semi-empirical formula based on the Taft equation is established to directly estimate alkaline stability of quaternary phosphonium (QP) cations from the 31P NMR chemical shift δ and the steric substituent constant Es.
