The conformational preferences in the {M(μ-OPO)}2 core of transition metal complexes double bridged by phosphate and related ligands have been determined using data retrieved from the Cambridge Structural Database by a probabilistic method. The preferred conformations lie on a pseudorotation pathway (chair and twist-chair conformations). The influence of intra-ring bridges, metal atom, coordination number or ligand in the conformational preferences has been investigated.
