According to a quantum chemical analysis based on energy optimized MNDO calculations the 1.5-sigmatropic reaction of cyclopentadienylphosphanes can occur via a transition state either with retention or inversion of configuration at phosphorus, depending on the ligands within the PR2 fragment. Electropositive R favour inversion and electronegative R retention of configuration at phosphorus. In addition, given the same ligand R, retention (over inversion) comes to the fore with increasing atomic number of the central atom at the MR2 unit, i.e. in the order M = N < P < As < Sb.
