Phosphorus mononitride is an inorganic compound with the chemical formula P N. Containing only phosphorus and nitrogen, this material is classified as a binary nitride. From the Lewis structure perspective, it can be represented with a P-N triple bond with a lone pair on each atom. It is isoelectronic with N 2, CO, P 2, CS and SiO.
Organophosphorus chemistry is the scientific study of the synthesis and properties of organophosphorus compounds, which are organic compounds containing phosphorus. [1] They are used primarily in pest control as an alternative to chlorinated hydrocarbons that persist in the environment.
Phosphorus nitride refers to several chemical compounds of phosphorus and nitrogen: Phosphorus mononitride;
The Kjeldahl method or Kjeldahl digestion (Danish pronunciation: [ˈkʰelˌtɛˀl]) in analytical chemistry is a method for the quantitative determination of a sample's organic nitrogen plus ammonia/ammonium (NH 3 /NH 4 +). Without modification, other forms of inorganic nitrogen, for instance nitrate, are not included in
Phosphorus is classified as a pnictogen, together with nitrogen, arsenic, antimony, bismuth, and moscovium. Phosphorus is an element essential to sustaining life largely through phosphates, compounds containing the phosphate ion, PO 4 3−. Phosphates are a component of DNA, RNA, ATP, and phospholipids, complex compounds fundamental to cells.
Relationship of phosphate to nitrate uptake for photosynthesis in various regions of the ocean. Note that nitrate is more often limiting than phosphate. The Redfield ratio or Redfield stoichiometry is the consistent atomic ratio of carbon, nitrogen and phosphorus found in marine phytoplankton and throughout the deep oceans.
Nitridophosphate compounds nearly always contain phosphorus in tetrahedral configuration. They can be characterised by the condensation index K which is the ratio of numbers of phosphorus tetrahedral centres to nitrogen vertices. As more nitrogen atoms are shared between phosphorus, condensation increases.
An ylide (/ ˈ ɪ l aɪ d /) [1] or ylid (/ ˈ ɪ l ɪ d /) is a neutral dipolar molecule containing a formally negatively charged atom (usually a carbanion) directly attached to a heteroatom with a formal positive charge (usually nitrogen, phosphorus or sulfur), and in which both atoms have full octets of electrons.
