Antimony vanadium bromide

Hypovanadic Bromide, vanadium tetrabromide, VBr4, has not hitherto been isolated, but it is of interest to note that a double salt of composition VBr4.SbBr3.7HaO has been obtained by dissolving antimony tribromide and vanadium pentoxide in hydrobromic acid and adding bromine. ... 

He found that with ordinary commercial red phosphorus with 98 per cent, phosphorus, there dissolved 0-056 and 0-108 per cent, of phosphorus in respectively 10 and 42 hrs., and with a finely-divided sample 0-092 and 0-116 percent, phosphorus in 10 and 20 hrs. respectively. R. Schenck found that 100 grms. of phosphorus tribromide dissolved 0-2601 grm. of scarlet phosphorus at 172°, and 0-3634 grm. at 184°. E. Baudrimont showed that yellow phosphorus does not attack phosphoryl bromide at the b.p. L. Rosenstein found that soln. of arsenates, and arsenic, antimony, or bismuth salts are not reduced by boiling with red phosphorus but W. Finkelstein found that a nitrobenzene soln. of arsenic trichloride is reduced by yellow phosphorus and arsenic is deposited. 0. Ruff observed that phosphorus reacts with antimony trichloride in the presence of a little aluminium chloride. F. E. Brown and J. E. Snyder observed that vanadium oxytrichloride is without action on red or white phosphorus.
