87. The much smaller energy separation between the singlet states of PPh (4, 1 kcal/mol) as compared to that for NPh (18.4 kcal/mol) is due to the smaller Coulomb repulsion at the phosphorus center, which reduces the driving force for the open-shell singlet to delocalize an electron over the phenyl ring.24

103. i symmetry resulted in essentially no change, except for only one imaginary frequency (3i).
104. i symmetry, due to the coordinating phospholene ligands, the agreement between theory and the X-ray structure is quite reasonable.
