© 2018, Pleiades Publishing, Ltd. Conformational analysis of tris(3-methylphenyl)phosphine and its chalcogenides has been performed by methods of dipole moments, IR spectroscopy, and quantum chemistry [DFT B3PW91/6-31G(df,p)]. In solution, these compounds exist as an equilibrium of conformers with gauche- and cis-arrangement of the substituents at the phosphorus atom relative to the P=X bond (X = lone electron pair, O, S, Se).
