Two main types of displacement processes are well known at neutralthiophosphoryl group transfer reactions: concerted involving displacementat phosphorus through a single pentacoordinate transition state (TS) and stepwise mechanism involving a trigonal bipyramidal pentacoordinate (TBP-5C) intermediate. In some cases mechanistic change from concerted to stepwise or vice versahas been reported. This paper includes a review on mechanism of nucleophilic substitution at phosphorus center with P=S substrates. For example the reactions of aryl phenyl chlorothiophospahtes with anilines were reported as concerted whereas the reactions between thiophosphinyl and thiophosphonyl chlorides and R2NH proceed through stepwise mechanism forming thiophosphene intermediates. In case of reactions of O-aryl methylphosphono chloridothioates with anilines the mechanism reported as change from concerted to stepwise. These conclusions were done based on Hammett and Brönsted constants, Cross-interaction Constants and Kinetic Isotope Effects. The papers reported from 1994-2014 were reviewed in this article.
