A systematic quantum chemical study of the bonding in d6‐transition‐metal complexes, containing phosphine‐stabilized, main‐group‐element fragments, (R3P)2E, as ligands (E=AlH, BH, CH+, C), is reported. By using energy decomposition analysis, it is demonstrated that a strong M−E bond is accompanied by weak P−E bonds, and vice versa. Although the Al−M bond is, for example, found to be very strong, the weak Al−P bond suggests that the corresponding metal complexes will not be stable towards phosphine dissociation. The interaction energies for the boron(I)‐based ligand are lower, but still higher than those for two‐carbon‐based ligands. For neutral ligands, electrostatic interactions are the dominating contributions to metal–ligand bonding, whe...
