Aromatic phosphorus compounds

The reason for this behavior in the case of the double-bonded structures ( A -type phosphorus) is the easy dimerization of the P=C bond. Tricoordinate planar (or nearly planar) phosphorus ( B - and C -type bonding) can be stabilized by repyramidalization when the cyclic electron delocalization is disturbed or lost (e.g., in a chemical reaction). The fine balance between these energetic effects cannot easily be predicted by using analogies or other simple models. Such predictions, however, can be made by using the sophisticated methods of computational chemistry, leaving the field of the chemistry of the aromatic phosphorus compounds an interesting research area with unexpected results in the future. 

The aromatic heterocycle phosphabenzene C5H5P (analogous to pyridine) was reported in 1971, some years after its triphenyl derivative 2,4,6-Ph3C5H2P. See also HP=CH2 29) nd [P(CN)2] ° (p. 484). The burgeoning field of heterocyclic phosphorus compounds featuring... 

Organic polymers provide one of the most versatile groups of materials and have widespread uses. Due to some inherent deficiencies, mainly poor heat and flame resistance, these materials suffer from limitations in certain areas of application. The resistance of polymers to high temperatures and flame may be increased by the incorporation of both aromatic rings and certain chemical elements in the polymer chain. It has been found that phosphorus, present either as a constituent in the polymer chain or incorporated as an additive in the form of a phosphorus compound to the polymer system, can make polymers flame retardant [109]. 

The formation and reaction of peroxyl radicals derived by reaction of tervalent phosphorus compounds with oxygen have attracted interest. Photolysis of trialkyl phosphites in oxygenated solutions of aromatic hydrocarbons gives phenols. " Phosphorus trichloride reacts with 1,2-dichloroethylene, in the presence of oxygen, to give (17). It is tempting to suggest that both reactions occur via similar intermediates, e.g. (15) and (16). 

Nyulaszi et al. <1998NJC651> investigated the fused phosphindolizine ring system 2. Their ab initio quantum-chemical calculations have shown this tricoordinated phosphorus to be essentially planar and aromatic in nature. Such planar tricoordinate phosphorus compounds can be used as building blocks for aromatic systems.

Commercially available flame retardants include chlorine- and bromine-containing compounds, phosphate esters, and chloroalkyl phosphates. Recent entry into the market place is a blend of an aromatic bromine compound and a phosphate ester (DE-60F Special) for use in flexible polyurethane foam (8). This paper describes the use of a brominated aromatic phosphate ester, where the bromine and phosphorus are in the same molecule, in high temperature thermoplastic applications. 

The aromaticity of the phosphorus compounds with the A—D bonding type (shown in Scheme 1) will be discussed below, using structural, energetic, and magnetic criteria. The chemical reactivity—in relation to the aromatic stabilization—will be mentioned as well. 

Where the target analyte contains heteroatoms such as nitrogen, phosphorus and sulfur, atom-selective detectors can provide an ideal detection method. A number of examples appear in the literature of the use of a detector called a thermal energy analyser (TEA) for the measurement of A-nitroso compounds [14-17] and aromatic nitro compounds [18]. This has also been used as an HPLC detector [19, 20], and a modified TEA has been reported to be useful for analysis of amines and other nitrogen-containing compounds [17]. Unfortunately, this technique appears not to have gained in popularity, since no reports have appeared in the literature for over two decades. 

There have been efforts to form aromatic polyamides directly from diacids at moderate temperatures by using various phosphorus compounds for in situ activation of the carboxyl groups [Arai et al., 1985 Higashi and Kohayashi, 1989 Krigbaum et al., 1985]. A useful agent is diphenyl(2,3-dihydro-2-thioxo-3-benzoxazolyl)phosphonate, which probably activates the carboxyl group by forming a mixed carboxylic-phosphoric anhydride [Ueda, 1999 Ueda et al., 1991]. 

Remarkable enhancements of the unimolecular c-t isomerization of c-S with p-MeO and oxidation of S with -MeO are explained by charge-spin separation in such S Unimolecular c-t isomerization of such c-S proceeds with a chain mechanism, while regioselective oxidation occurs in such S because of the spin localization. Cycloreversion of t,c,t-TPCB occurs to give a a-St 2, while the photochemical cycloreversion of TPCB and t,t,t-TPCB gives Tr-St 2 and t-St /t-St pair, respectively. Radical cations of phosphorus compounds (9 and 10 form intramolecular rr-dimer between two Nps from which Np 2 forms. Formation of intermolecular a-dimer of aromatic acetylene (11 - and 12 -) and intramolecular dimer of 13 and diarylmethanoT was observed, and the n = 3 rule is not effective for intramolecular dimer -. 

The most common method for achieving aromatization of compounds such as 72 is with phosphorus oxytrichloride and the addition of dimethylformamide (DMF Scheme 1) (see, for example, <1996CHEC-II(7)921>, and more recently, <2004M283, 1997S567>). Reductive dechlorination of 73 with palladium on carbon in the presence of sodium hydroxide affords the corresponding heterocycle 74 (Scheme 1) <2004M283>.

The most reliable method for generating nitrenes is the thermal or photochemical elimination of nitrogen from azides. An alternative method which is useful for indole and carbazole synthesis is the deoxygenation of aromatic nitro compounds with trivalent phosphorus compounds. Triethyl phosphite is the most commonly used reagent, though more reactive compounds may be useful in special cases (B-79MI30600).
