The mechanism of the Stec reaction between phosphoroselenanilidate or phosphonoanilidate and CS2, activated by strong bases, has been studied computationally, using DFT methods, and experimentally, by low temperature 31P NMR spectroscopy. From molecular calculations, the reaction pathway of the reaction has been revealed with several transition states and intermediates, including a low energy spirocyclic pentacoordinate transition state and acyclic tetracoordinate intermediates, which eventually were correlated with short living molecules detected by NMR spectroscopy.
