Trimethylphosphine is the chemical compound with the formula P(CH3)3, commonly abbreviated PMe3. This colorless liquid has a strongly unpleasant odour, which characteristic of alkylphosphines. It is a pyramidal molecule with C3v symmetry, similar to ammonia (NH3) and phosphine (PH3). As a ligand, its cone angle is 118°. [G. L. Miessler and D. A. Tarr “Inorganic Chemistry” 3rd Ed, Pearson/Prentice Hall publisher, ISBN 0-13-035471-6.]

PMe3 is prepared using Grignard reagents: [cite journal | editor = Robert J. Angelici | journal = Inorganic Syntheses | author = Leutkens, Jr., M. L.; Sattelberger, A. P.; Murray, H. H.; Basil, J.

Coordination chemistry

Trimethylphosphine is a highly basic ligand that forms complexes with most metals. The synthesis of an illustrative example is shown::PMe3 + Fe(CO)5 → Fe(CO)4PMe3 + COIts complex with silver iodide, AgI(PMe3) is a weighable, air stable solid that releases PMe3 upon heating.

afety

PMe3 is potentially pyrophoric, as well as toxic. PMe3 can be converted to non-pyrophoric phosphine oxide by treatment with dilute bleach.
