Abstract
- The mechanism of the aza-Wittig reaction between phosphazenes and aldehydes is studied computationally using density functional theory methods. It is found that the reaction consists of a tandem [2+2] cycloaddition-cycloreversion sequence in which pi and sigma orbitals as well as lone pairs are involved.
