The coordination chemistry of tris(2-pyridyl)phosphine (PPy3) and tris(2-pyridyl)phosphine oxide (OPPy3) with MII chlorides (M= FeII, CoII, NiII, ZnII) will be described. The resulting complexes were characterized by IR, UV-visible, 1H and 31P NMR spectroscopies, and X-ray diffraction. Reactions of the resulting complexes in salt metatheses with acetylacetonate to afford mixed PPy3/acac complexes will also be discussed
