The mode of addition of hydrogenphosphonates to fluorinated ketones can also be complex. The addition of dialkyl, diphenyl or bis(trimethylsilyl) hydrogenphosphonates to methyl trifluoromethyl ketones occurs in the expected manner, but this contrasts with the behaviour of aryl perfluoralkyl ketones in the presence of triethylamine at room temperature, when the products, obtained even under such mild conditions, are phosphate esters (reaction 6), a situation which represents lack of stability of the hydroxyphospho-nate rather than novelty of the reaction under identical conditions, the corresponding alkyl aryl ketones fail to react. The same reaction with mixed-halogen ketones is still more involved, and the nature of the products depends on the reaction conditions if these are of a mild nature, and with catalysis by triethylamine or pyridine (depending on the particular ketone), the product is the expected (hydroxyalkyl)phosphonate 177, whereas with... 

Triaiyl phosphates are prepared by phosphorylation of alkyl phenols without phosphorylation catalyst. This simplifies purification of the plasticizer by eliminating the need to withdraw the pirrified product as a distillate. Mixed alkyl diaiyl esters are produced in the presence of a catalytic amoimt of an alkali metal phenoxide. The plasticizer needs to be separated by distillation. Figure 2.39 shows the distillation process of pmifi-cation of triaryl phosphates. A crude triaryl phosphate ester reaction mixtrrre is passed... 

Phosphorus trichloride is a basis raw material required in the production of phosphate esters. The production of phosphorus trichloride involves the controlled reaction of chlorine gas (CI2) with elemental phospohorus (P4) in a boiling solution where phosphorus trichloride acts as the solvent. The reaction pathways are as follows ... 

CeUulose phosphate esters are also produced by treatment with sodium hexametaphosphate [14550-21-1] by the pad-dry-cure technique. These treated fabrics have high retention of breakiag and tearing strength (61). The reaction products contain more than 1.6% phosphoms and are iasoluble ia cupriethylenediamine [15243-01 -3] iadicating that some ceUulose cross-linking occurs. However, siace durable-press (DP) levels and wrinkle recovery values are low, it seems reasonable that only limited cross-linking takes place. 

Inefficiencies ia the reaction with POCl leads to alternative production of trialkyl phosphates by employing the sodium alkoxide rather than the alkyl alcohol itself Dialkyl aryl phosphates are produced ia two steps. The low molecular weight alcohol iavolved (eg, butyl) first reacts with excess POCl. The neutral phosphate ester is then completed by the iatermediate chloridate reacting with excess sodium arylate ia water. 

DNA is not susceptible to alkaline hydrolysis. On the other hand, RNA is alkali labile and is readily hydrolyzed by dilute sodium hydroxide. Cleavage is random in RNA, and the ultimate products are a mixture of nucleoside 2 - and 3 -monophosphates. These products provide a clue to the reaction mechanism (Figure 11.29). Abstraction of the 2 -OH hydrogen by hydroxyl anion leaves a 2 -0 that carries out a nucleophilic attack on the phosphorus atom of the phosphate moiety, resulting in cleavage of the 5 -phosphodiester bond and formation of a cyclic 2, 3 -phosphate. This cyclic 2, 3 -phosphodiester is unstable and decomposes randomly to either a 2 - or 3 -phosphate ester. DNA has no 2 -OH therefore DNA is alkali stable. 

Instead of immobilizing the antibody onto the transducer, it is possible to use a bare (amperometric or potentiometric) electrode for probing enzyme immunoassay reactions (42). In this case, the content of the immunoassay reaction vessel is injected to an appropriate flow system containing an electrochemical detector, or the electrode can be inserted into the reaction vessel. Remarkably low (femtomolar) detection limits have been reported in connection with the use of the alkaline phosphatase label (43,44). This enzyme catalyzes the hydrolysis of phosphate esters to liberate easily oxidizable phenolic products. 

Clear, surface-active phosphate ester compositions were prepared by heating 1 mol P4O,0 with 2-4.5 mol of a linear or branched chain C6, 8 saturated alcohol, a C4 20 mono- or dialkylphenol, or a 2- to 14-mol ethylene oxide adduct of one of these alcohols or alkylphenols at 25-110°C, and hydrolyzing the reaction product at 60-110°C with 0.5-3.0% H20. The hydrolyzed mixture had a lower Klett color value than the phosphorylation reaction mixture [21]. 

The development of monoalkyl phosphate as a low-skin-irritating anionic surfactant is accented in a review with 30 references on monoalkyl phosphate salts, including surface-active properties, cutaneous effects, and applications to paste- and liquid-type skin cleansers, and also on phosphorylation reactions from the viewpoint of industrial production [26]. The preparation and industrial applications of phosphate esters as anionic surfactants were discussed [27]. 

A mixture of monolauryl phosphate sodium salt and triethylamine in H20 was treated with glycidol at 80°C for 8 h to give 98% lauryl 2,3-dihydro-xypropyl phosphate sodium salt [304]. Dyeing aids for polyester fibers exist of triethanolamine salts of ethoxylated phenol-styrene adduct phosphate esters [294], Fatty ethanolamide phosphate surfactant are obtained from the reaction of fatty alcohols and fatty ethanolamides with phosphorus pentoxide and neutralization of the product [295]. A double bond in the alkyl group of phosphoric acid esters alter the properties of the molecule. Diethylethanolamine salt of oleyl phosphate is effectively used as a dispersant for antimony oxide in a mixture of xylene-type solvent and water. The composition is useful as an additive for preventing functional deterioration of fluid catalytic cracking catalysts for heavy petroleum fractions. When it was allowed to stand at room temperature for 1 month it shows almost no precipitation [241].

The first commercial trialkyl phosphate esters (TAP) were tricresyl phosphate (TCP) and trixylenyl phosphate (TXP), referred to as "natural" phosphate esters because the cresols and xylenols used as raw materials are derived from petroleum oil or coal tar (Marino and Placek 1994). These products are not commercially significant at present however, at waste disposal sites, contaminants from older product formulations may be encountered, particularly those containing the neurotoxic tri-o/T/io-cresyl phosphate isomer. "Synthetic" phosphate esters are derived from synthetic feedstocks. Specific synthetic reactions have been developed to produce triaryl, trialkyl, and alkyl Aryl esters. The triaryl phosphates are currently...

The alcoholysis of the cyclic phosphate of catechol by alditols can lead, after acid hydrolysis of intermediate, cyclic phosphates, to the selective formation of phosphoric esters of the primary hydroxyl groups in the alditols. Thus, erythritol and D-mannitol afford, after chromatographic purification of the reaction products, their 1-phosphates in yields of 31 and 38%, respectively.217 The method was used to convert riboflavine into riboflavine 5 -phosphate.218 1-Deoxy-1-fluoro-L-glycerol has been converted into the 3-(dibenzyl phosphate) in 54% yield by selective reaction with dibenzyl phosphorochloridate. 219... 

A phosphate-phosphonate rearrangement process has also been explored in which a strong base is used to abstract a proton from the position adjacent to an aryl phosphate ester linkage. The product, an or f/io-phosphonopheno I, is generated in excellent yield (Figure 6.16).70 Further exploration of the variability of structure for this type of reaction seems desirable. 

Results have generally been disappointing. It can be difficult to remove the TSA from the polymer, but a more fundamental problem concerns the efficiency of the catalysis observed. The most efficient systems catalyze the hydrolysis of carboxylate and reactive phosphate esters with Michaelis-Menten kinetics and accelerations (koAJKM)/kunoJ approaching 103,1661 but the prospects for useful catalysis of more complex reactions look unpromising. Apart from the usual difficulties the active sites produced are relatively inflexible, and the balance between substrate binding and product inhibition is particularly acute. 

Many methods have been developed in which a product of the reaction is chemically modified to produce a substance with a particular spectral property. The inorganic phosphate released by the hydrolysis of phosphate esters may be measured by simple chemical methods (Fiske and Subbarow) after the enzyme reaction has been stopped. Such techniques are often convenient but do not lend themselves to the measurement of initial velocity.
