Preferred Label : phosphanes;
IUPAC definition : The saturated hydrides of tervalent phosphorus having the general formula P sub i
n /i /sub H sub i n /i 2 /sub . Individual members having an unbranched phosphorus
chain are named phosphane, diphosphane, triphosphane, etc. The name of a saturated
hydride of phosphorus wherein one or more phosphorus atoms have a bonding number of
5 is formed by prefixing locants and λ5 symbols to the name of the corresponding phosphane.
Hydrocarbyl derivatives of PH sub 3 /sub belong to the class phosphines.;
