The turnstile mechanism is sometimes alternatively invoked, but for the triquinphosphoranes the pseudo-rotation according Berry is by far the most appropriated in the sense of symmetrical factors and due to the structural dependence of five membered rings:

The sense of chirality can be specified by viewing the idealized TBP structure along its apical axis in the orientation which places nearer the viewer the apical substituent which has the higher priority rank in the CIP nomenclature scheme. The priority ranking of the equatorial ligands using the CIP conventions results in order decreasing priority which can be recognized by the viewer as being clockwise (R) or counterclokwise (S).

18. (d) Contreras et al. have recently obtained an X-ray diffraction structure of the triquinphosphorane deriving from N,N′-bis[(-)-norephedrine]ethylene. In this structure, the phosphorus atom adopts a TBP geometry with a nitrogen atom in apical position and the five membered rings in the apical-equatorial positions.
