Split proposal

[edit]

I propose to split off the metal complexes, to be the basis for transition metal phosphinidine complex.

Three reasons:

  1. A lot of this article is about transition metal phosphinidine complexes, not phosphinidine This imbalance would be addressed.
  2. As briefly mentioned in phosphinidene), very few complexes of phosphidines are made from or can be converted to phosphinidines, the topics are faily distinct (strangely).
  3. Most metal phosphinidine chemistry is excluded from the present article By most, I mean complexes where RP is triply bridging. --Smokefoot (talk) 01:08, 16 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Support per nom. In addition, the article is long enough that splitting off the metal complexes makes sense, especially if we're planning to add to these sections. Preimage (talk) 02:02, 4 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
