The complex trans,mer-[VCl3(OPMe2Ph)(PMe2Ph)2] has been prepared and its octahedral structure established by X-ray crystallography with V-Cl(av) 2.346(7), V-P 2.547(2), V-O 1.966(5) angstrom and VOP 157.4(4)-degrees. The phosphine ligands can be displaced by L-L = 2,2'-bipyridine, tetramethylethylene-diamine or Et2PCH2CH2PEt2 to give [VCl3(OPMe2Ph)(L-L)]. The X-ray crystal structure of mer-[VCl3(OPMe2Ph)(Et2PCH2CH2PEt2)] has been determined with V-Cl(av) 2.340(11), V-P 2.538(2) angstrom (trans to Cl), 2.501(2) angstrom (trans to O), V-O 2.049(4) angstrom and VOP 134.6(2)-degrees. Other reactions of trans,mer-[VCl3(OPMe2Ph)(PMe2Ph)2] have been investigated. Protonation with HCl gives [PHMe2Ph]-[VCl4(OPMe2Ph)], reaction with SiMe3(S2CNEt2) gives [V(S2CNEt2)3] and reduction with MgEtCl in the presence of an excess of Me2PCH2CH2PMe2 gives trans-[VCl2(Me2PCH2CH2PMe2)2].
