Triphenylphosphine oxide (often abbreviated TPPO) is the organophosphorus compound with the formula OP(C 6 H 5) 3, also written as Ph 3 PO or PPh 3 O (Ph = C 6 H 5). It is one of the more common phosphine oxides. This colourless crystalline compound is a common but potentially useful waste product in reactions involving triphenylphosphine.
Triphenylphosphine undergoes slow oxidation by air to give triphenylphosphine oxide, Ph 3 PO: 2 PPh 3 + O 2 → 2 OPPh 3. This impurity can be removed by recrystallisation of PPh 3 from either hot ethanol or isopropanol. [8] This method capitalizes on the fact that OPPh 3 is more polar and hence more soluble in polar solvents than PPh 3.

The hydrolysis of phosphorus(V) dihalides also affords the oxide: [9] R 3 PCl 2 + H 2 O → R 3 PO + 2 HCl. A special nonoxidative route is applicable secondary phosphine oxides, which arise by the hydrolysis of the chlorophosphine. An example is the hydrolysis of chlorodiphenylphosphine to give diphenylphosphine oxide: Ph 2 PCl + H 2 O → Ph ...
The structure of the phosphine oxide is not strongly perturbed by coordination. The geometry at phosphorus remains tetrahedral. The P-O distance elongates by ca. 2%. In triphenylphosphine oxide, the P-O distance is 1.48 Å. [3] In NiCl 2 [OP(C 6 H 5) 3] 2, the distance is 1.51 Å (see figure).

The P=O bond is very polar with a dipole moment of 4.51 D for triphenylphosphine oxide. Compounds related to phosphine oxides include phosphine imides (R 3 PNR') and related chalcogenides (R 3 PE, where E = S, Se, Te). These compounds are some of the most thermally stable organophosphorus compounds.
