Chemical compound
Octachlorotetraphosphazene is an inorganic compound with the formula (NPCl2)4. The molecule has a cyclic, unsaturated backbone consisting of alternating phosphorus and nitrogen centers, and can be viewed as a tetramer of the hypothetical compound N≡PCl2.
The compound has not been studied as much as the related species hexachlorotriphosphazene, in the samples of which octachlorotetraphosphazene is usually found as an unwanted contamintant.[1]
Structure and bonding
[edit ]Octachlorotetraphosphazene has a P4N4 core with six equivalent P–N bonds.[2]
Synthesis
[edit ]- NH4Cl + PCl5 → 1/n (NPCl2)n + HCl
Reactions
[edit ]Substitution at P
[edit ]Some spiro-, ansa-, and spiro-ansa-cyclic derivatives have been prepared via nucleophilic substitution of octachlorotetraphosphazene with alkoxides.[3]
