N(CH3)3 and P(CH3)3 both are Lewis base and acts as ligand, However, P(CH3)3 has a π-acceptor character.
Given below are two statements: Statement I: N(CH3)3 and P(CH3)3 can act as ligands to form transition metal complexes. Statement II: As N and P are from same group, the nature of bonding of N(CH3)3 and P(CH3)3 is always same with transition metals. In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:
