Elimination of an L ligand (as the first step of a D substitution mechanism) from a charge - neutral NiL4 complex has very little tendency to occur for L = P(OMe3), but for L = PMe3, it occurs almost completely. Since the two ligand species have approximately the same cone angle, what factors are responsible for this difference?
