Abstract

AbstractThe major studies of my research group in the University of Tokyo (1965–1980) and Hiroshima University (1980–2000) and some related research (2000–2010) are outlined briefly. The following themes are included mostly in chronological order: (1) phosphoranes and nitrosoimines, (2) synthetic work based on heteroaromatic cations and activation of imines, (3) bond switching at hypervalent sulfurane (10‐S‐3): energy of a hypervalent bond, (4) formation of the hypervalent bond, (5) edge inversion of antimony(III) and bismuth(III) compounds, (6) apicophilicity, pseudorotation, and ligand coupling, (7) freezing pseudorotation of phosphoranes and its effect, (8) hypervalent ate complexes of antimony and bismuth and their transition metal complexes, (9) hypervalent organotellurium compounds, (10) porphyrins of group 15 elements (phosphorus, arsenic, and antimony), and (11) synthesis and structure of hypervalent carbon species (10‐C‐5 and 12‐C‐6). © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
