Tris(trimethylsilyl)phosphine is prepared by treating trimethylsilyl chloride, white phosphorus, and sodium-potassium alloy: [2] 1/4 P 4 + 3 Me 3 SiCl + 3 K → P(SiMe 3) 3 + 3 KCl. Several other methods exist. [1] Copper phosphide cluster Cu 96 P 30 {P(SiMe 3) 2} 6 (PEt 3) 18 with C and H atoms omitted for clarity (red=Cu, purple=P, tan=Si ...
Many analogues of diethyl phosphite can be prepared. [4] [5] Despite being named as a phosphite the compound exists overwhelmingly in its phosphonate form, (C 2 H 5 O) 2 P(O)H, a property it shares with its parent acid phosphorous acid. Nonetheless many of its reactions appear to proceed via the minor phosphorus(III) tautomer. [6]
Chemicals which can be used as weapons, or used in their manufacture, but which have no, or almost no, legitimate applications as well are listed in Schedule 1, whilst Schedule 2 is used for chemicals which have legitimate small-scale applications. The use of Schedule 1, 2, or 3 chemicals as weapons is banned by the Convention.
In organic chemistry, phosphonates or phosphonic acids are organophosphorus compounds containing C−PO(OR) 2 groups, where R is an organic group (alkyl, aryl). If R is hydrogen then the compound is a dialkyl phosphite, which is a different functional group.
A trimethylsilyl group (abbreviated TMS) is a functional group in organic chemistry.This group consists of three methyl groups bonded to a silicon atom [−Si(CH 3) 3], which is in turn bonded to the rest of a molecule.
The Michaelis–Arbuzov reaction is initiated with the S N 2 attack of the nucleophilic phosphorus species (1 - A phosphite) with the electrophilic alkyl halide (2) to give a phosphonium salt as an intermediate (3). These intermediates are occasionally stable enough to be isolated, such as for triaryl phosphites which do not react to form the ...
Dimethyl methylphosphonate can be prepared from trimethyl phosphite and a halomethane (e.g. iodomethane) via the Michaelis–Arbuzov reaction. [2]Dimethyl methylphosphonate is a schedule 2 chemical as it may be used in the production of chemical weapons.
Trimethylsilylacetylene is commercially available. It may also be prepared in a manner similar to other silyl compounds: deprotonation of acetylene with a Grignard reagent, followed by reaction with trimethylsilyl chloride. [4] Trimethylsilylacetylene is a precursor to 1,4-bis(trimethylsilyl)buta-1,3-diyne, a protected form of 1,3-butadiyne. [5]
