Phosgene is an organic chemical compound with the formula COCl 2. It is a toxic, colorless gas; in low concentrations, its musty odor resembles that of freshly cut hay or grass. [ 7 ] It can be thought of chemically as the double acyl chloride analog of carbonic acid , or structurally as formaldehyde with the hydrogen atoms replaced by chlorine ...
Phosphine is an attractive fumigant because it is lethal to insects and rodents, but degrades to phosphoric acid, which is non-toxic. As sources of phosphine, for farm use, pellets of aluminium phosphide (AlP), calcium phosphide (Ca 3 P 2), or zinc phosphide (Zn 3 P 2) are used. These phosphides release phosphine upon contact with atmospheric ...
With the formula (HO) 2 P(O)CH 2 NHCH 2 CO 2 H, this derivative of glycine is one of the most widely used herbicides. Bisphosphonates are a class of drugs to treat osteoporosis. The nerve gas agent sarin, containing both C–P and F–P bonds, is a phosphonate. Phosphinates feature two P–C bonds, with the general formula R 2 P(=O)(OR').
Organophosphines are organophosphorus compounds with the formula PR n H 3−n, where R is an organic substituent.These compounds can be classified according to the value of n: primary phosphines (n = 1), secondary phosphines (n = 2), tertiary phosphines (n = 3).
Tributylphosphine is the organophosphorus compound with the chemical formula P(CH 2 CH 2 CH 2 CH 3) 3, often abbreviated as PBu 3. It is a tertiary phosphine. It is an oily liquid at room temperature, with a nauseating odor. It reacts slowly with atmospheric oxygen, and rapidly with other oxidizing agents, to give tributylphosphine oxide.
