Phosphabenzamidine [mes-NH-C(Ph)═P-mes) (1) and phosphaformamidine (mes-NH-CH═P-mes) (4) ligands have been synthesized and characterized. The conjugate bases of 1 and 4 coordinate by each bridging three Cu(I) ions, forming hexa- and tetranuclear clusters Cu<sub>6</sub>[mes-N═C(Ph)-P-mes]<sub>3</sub>Cl<sub>4</sub>Li(THF)<sub>2</sub> (3) and Cu<sub>4</sub>[mes-N═CH-P-mes]<sub>4</sub> (5), respectively. Both clusters have been fully characterized using <sup>1</sup>H NMR, <sup>31</sup>P NMR, and X-r ...[more]
