The phosphorus–oxygen bond formation reactions often observed for the sterically crowded triarylphosphines and their radical cations were studied by DFT calculation. The oxidations of the trimethyl-, triphenyl-, and trimesityl-phosphines to the corresponding phosphine oxides with peroxides are shown to proceed through the S N 2 like transition states and the overall influence of the steric hindrance on the activation energy is limited. The reaction of the radical cation of tris(2,4,6-triisopropylphenyl)phosphine with oxygen to give the heterocyclic phosphonium cation is modeled by employing (2,6-diisopropylphenyl)diphenylphosphine and the comparison of the intermediates suggests highly exergonic nature of the reaction.

Theoretical consideration on phosphorus–oxygen bond formation of sterically crowded triarylphosphines and their radical cations
