INTRODUCTION Phosphorus is one of several non-metalllc elements known to exhibit a coordination number of six toward covalently bonded sub­ stituents • An excellent example of this kind of compound is phos­ phorus pentachloride. This material in its normal crystalline state consists of the complex ions [PCl^J^PCl^]” arranged in a distorted cesium chloride type lattice (1) • For the purpose of later discussions» the dualistic nature of this material should be emphasised. In contrast to the ionic character of its solid state> the composition of its liquid (2) and gaseous (3) states has been interpreted in terms of PCl^ trigonal bipyramidal molecules. But* the point of interest to this discussion is the octahedral hexachlorophosphate anion in which phosphorus had increased its coordination sphere to accomodate six substituents. Although a wide variety of compounds are known in which phosphorus has a coordination number of six» the actual number of compounds is not very large. A convenient approach to discussing these materials is to consider them all derivatives of phosphorus pentachloride. The various compounds can be placed in one of several classes according to their basic structures. Class A .— Addition complexes of molecular phosphorus penta­ chloride or its molecular derivatives— L #FClaX^_t. Class B .— Replacement of the complex [PC1^]+ cation of ionic phosphorus pentachloride by another cation— M’^tPCl^]*'. 1 2 Class C .— Replacement of the [FCl^]* cation by another cation and successive replacement of chlorine atoms on the complex [P&^l anion by other atoms or radicals— ^ [ P C l ^ X ^ ^ 3^. Class D .— Successive replacement of the chlorine atoms on the [PC16]“ anion by other atoms or radicals— [PCl^]+[PClaX ^ ^ ] “ . Class A compounds include a rather extensive list of addition complexes of phosphorus pentafluoride. Phosphorus pentafluorlde has been shewn to be a strong Levis acid forming one-to-one complexes with amines* ethers* nitriles* sulfoxides* and many other organic bases (4-)* Pyridine complexes of the molecular species PCl^ (5)* PCl^F* PCl^Fg* and PCI2F^ (6) have been described* The older of Levis acid strengths toward pyridine is as expected; FCl^Fg > FCl^F > PC15 (?)* The PClgFj complex has the formula 3py*2PCl2F^* The struc­ ture of this complex is hard to visualize unless a seven-coordinate phosphorus species is assumed* A carbon tetrachloride complex of phosphorus pentachloride having the formula CCl^*2PC1^ has been re­ ported (8). The complex vas formed as a precipitate upon cooling a saturated solution of phosphorus pentachloride in carbon tetrachloride* This complex might involve ionic phosphorus pentachloride instead of the molecular form* such as (CC1^*FC1^ 3+[PC1^ ] % in vhich cationic phosphorus acts as an acceptor for non-bonded p electrons on the carbon tetrachloride molecule* A biphosphorus ccmplex having a bridge type bond involving the chlorines on carbon tetrachloride is another pos­ sibility. The latter is more likely because no evidence has been found for ion pair formation of phosphorus pentachloride in carbon tetrachloride solutions (9)* The species PBr^*2CCl^ vas also 3 reported (8*10). Two other species * PCl^BryCCl^ and FCl^Br^#2CCl^> were isolated from PCl^-Br^-CCl^ systems (11). Whether or not six coordinate phosphorus is involved is an open question* A tensiomstric study in brcmobenzene (12) showed formation of [(CH-^Pjg'FCl^ which was isolated as a white solid* Tertiary amines have not been ob­ served to form addition complexes with phosphorus pentachloride* Instead* dehydrogenation occurs with resultant formation of the amine hydrochloride (12*13)* Stable pyridine and dimethylfoxmamide com­ plexes of pheoyltetrafluorophosphorane* * have been

Triazine-derived quaternary ammonium salts, e.g., 4-(4,6-dimethoxy-1,3,5-triazin-2-yl)-4-methylmorpholinium chloride (DMTMM(Cl)), emerged as promising dehydro-condensation agents for amide synthesis, although suffering of limited stability and high costs. In the present work, a simple protocol for the synthesis of amides mediated by 2-chloro-4,6-dimethoxy-1,3,5-triazine (CDMT) and a tert-amine has been described and data are compared to DMTMM(Cl) and other CDMT-derived quaternary ammonium salts (DMT-Ams(X), X: − − Cl or ClO4 ). Different tert-amines (Ams) were tested for the synthesis of various DMT-Ams(Cl), but only DMTMM(Cl) could be isolated and employed for dehydro-condensation reactions, while all CDMT/tert-amine systems tested were efficient as dehydro-condensation agents. Interestingly, in best reaction conditions, CDMT and 1,4-dimethylpiperazine gave N-phenethyl benzamide in 93% yield in 15 min, with up to half the amount of tert-amine consumption.

  • Durridge RAD H2O User Manual
    RAD H2O Radon in Water Accessory for the RAD7 User Manual INTRODUCTION Te RAD H2O is an accessory to the RAD7 that enables you to measure radon in water over a concentration range of from less than 10 pCi/L to greater than 400,000 pCi/L. By diluting your sample, or by waiting for sample decay, you can extend the method's upper range to any concentration. Te equipment is portable and battery operated, and the measurement is fast. You can have an accurate reading of radon in water within an hour of taking the sample. Te RAD H2O gives results afer a 30 minutes analysis with a sensitivity that matches or exceeds that of liquid scintillation methods. Te method is simple and straightforward. Tere are no harmful chemicals to use. Once the procedure becomes familiar and well understood it will produce accurate results with minimal effort. It is assumed that the user has a good, working knowledge of the RAD7. If both the RAD7 and the RAD H2O are new to the user, then time should be spent learning how to make good measurements of radon in air with the RAD7 before embarking on radon in water measurements. Instructions for RAD7 operation with the RAD H2O are given in this manual but, for more detail about the instrument and its use, the reader is referred to the RAD7 manual. Grateful acknowledgment is made of the signifcant contribution to this manual by Stephen Shefsky, who wrote most of the original NITON RAD H2O manual, much of which is incorporated in this version.
