Conclusion. 54 IV. Literature cited. 56 INTRODUCTION Hypophosphoric acid, H4P206, is a.member of a series of cxyacids of phosphorus. In hypOphoSphorous acid, h3P02, phosphorus exhibits a valence number of positive one; in phosporous acid, H3P03, positive three; in hypophOSphoric acid, H4P305, positive four; and in phOSphoric acid, H3PO4, positive five. Such a series is a fruitful field of study. For example, phosphite is rapidly and quantitatively oxidized to phosphate by iodine in a neutral solution. HypophOSphite does net interfere. However if the reaction sclution is acidified, hypophospnite is oxidized to a.mixture of phosphite and phosphate. It can be made quantitative by neutralizing and oxidizing the phOSphite so formed to phosphatetES). However at pH 5.7 to 4.6 phoSphite is oxidized to hypophosphate with a yield of from 37tll) to 55tl2) per cent. before further studies of the series can be made the chemistry of the individual members must be better known. The literature contains more information on phosphite than on hypophOSphite or hypOphosphate. What has been written on hyp0ph05phite is often vague and misleading while information on hypophosphate is to a large extent entirely lacking. Hence the purpose oi this work is twofOld, to work out methods of determining hypophosphate and to more fully characterize it. HISTORICAL Pelletiertld) identified two acids of phoSphorus. One he called 'l'acice phosphorique", and the other 'l‘acide phoSphoreux'. The acid “l'acide phosphoreux" was commonly known as ”Pelletier's acid" until Salzer in le77 identified it as suhphosphoric acid\22), now called hypophosphoric acid, H4P306. The classical method of preparation is by the slow oxidation of yellow phosphorus. Sticks of yellow phos- phorus are half sucmerged in water and oxidation is allowed to proceed for several weeks. A mixture of phOSphorous, hypophosphoric, anu phosphoric acids is Obtained. brom 6 to l6 percent of the phosphorus is converted to hypophosphate. SalzerQZS) reported 6 to 7 per cent of the phosphorus oxidized to hypophosphate, Jelyt7) reported l2 to 14 per cent, and van Name and huff (31) reported l0 to l6 per cent conversion. In all cases the hypophoSphate was isolated as sodium dihydrogen hypophoSphate hexahydrate, Na2H2P206°6HgO. Hosenheim and PinsxertZO) prepared hypophOSphate by the oxidation of yellow phosphorus with cupric ion in dilute nitric acid sclution. This method was later modified by Jungte). Rosenheim and Pinsker reported a yield of 10 per cent of the theoretical, Jung reported l8.l per cent. Hosenheim and Pinsker (20) also prepared hypophos- phate by the electrOlysis of a l to 2 per cent sulfuric acid sclution using anodes of copper, nickel, or silver phOSphide and the corresponding metal as the cathode. They reported a yield of 60 per cent. With iron phos- phide only phosphate was formed. Speter(27) prepared hypophOSphate by the oxidation of red phoSphorus with bleaching powder, calcium chloride hypochlorite. Five g. of red phosphorus was heated with l liter of lO per cent solution of practical grade bleaching powder. After filtering, the acids formed were nearly neutralized with solid calcium carbonate. Calcium phOSphite, hypophosphate, and phOSphate precipi- tate with standing. A solution of the pure acids was Obtained by dissolving the precipitate in the smallest possible volume of dilute sulfuric acid. Calcium sulfate settles out. Speter did not isolate the hypophOSphate but used the solution of mixed acids as a test reagent for thorium. He reported that 64 per cent of the phOSphorus was oxidized, with hypophosphoric acid predominating. Probst(19) modified Speter's method by utilizing an alkaline solution of sodium hypochlorite instead of the bleaching powder, thus entirely eliminating the calcium ion. He reported a yield of 25 per cent. Kclitowska(ll) prepared hypophosphoric acid by oxidizing the hydrolysis products of phOSphorus tetraiodide, P314, and pnOSphoruS triiodide, P13, with iouine at approximately pH 6.7. He reported a yield of 44.6 per cent from the tetraiodide and 37.3 per cent from the triiodide. Kolitowska(l0) also prepared hypophosphoric acid by the oxidation of the hydrolysis products of phosphorus trichloride, PCls, with iodine at a pH of 5.7. Kolitowska(l2) also prepared hypophosphoric acid from the hydrolysis products of phOSphorus tribromide by the oxidation with iodine in a solution buffered with sodium acetate and sodium bicarbonate. He reported a yield of 55 per cent. Hilobedzike, Kolitowska, and Berxan(l6) prepared hypophOSphoric acid by the oxidation of red phOSphorus with iodine at a pH of 5.7 to 4.6 with a yield of 34 per cent. Salzer(24) determined hypophoSphate by direct titration With potassium permanganate. Satisfactory results could by obtained only if the potassium permanganate was standardized against pure sodium dihydrogen hypophOSphate. Hypophosphate can be hydrolyzed to phosphite and phosphate with hydrochloric acid and the phosphite so formed ddermined(30). Treadwell and Schwarzenbach(29) determined hypophOSphate by titration with a standard solution of uranous sulfate, U(SO4)3, in an atmOSphere of carbon dioxide obtaining the end point electrometrically. uranous hypophOSphate, UPZOG, is insoluble. Silver hypophoSphate is insoluble over a pH range of l to 2 while silver hypophosphite, phOSphite and pnOSphate are scluble. Hence the separation of hypophosphate as silver hypophosphate can be used as a method of determination. Wolf and Jung(34) buffered a solution containing hypophosphite, phOSphite, and hypothSphate with phosphoric or formic acid. Excess Standard silver nitrate solution was added. The silver hypOphOSphate was filtered off and the excess silver determined by titrating the filtrate with standard potassium thiocyanate solution. Wolf, Jung, and Uspenskaja(35} modified the method by titrating directly with silver nitrate solution obtaining the end point potentiometrically in a solution buffered by dideium phoSphate. Exclusion of air was not necessary. A qualitative test for hypophOSphoric acid and its salts is the formation of a precipitate with guanidine carbonate, 2NHC(NH3)2-H2003. Mfiller(20) assigned the formula (CN3H6)2P05+H30 to the precipitate. Rosenheim and Pinsker(21) said it was (0N335)4H2P03+5Hbo. Bell and Sugden(l) in a more recent work determined the formula of guanidine hypophospnate to be 4(CN3H4)-g§:865- Hypophosphoric acid and its salts form a curdy precipitate with thorium which is insoluble in boiling hydrochloric acid. The reaction was used by Speter(27) -b— as a qualitative test for thorium. The precipitate formed is the normal thorium hypophosphate, ThPZOG'llHBO. The doubled formula, (H2P03)2 or H4P205, for hypophosphoric acid was established by conductance and freezing point data. Treadwell and Schwarzenbach(29) obtained the ionization constants of the acid by electrometrio methods. Kl has the value of 10'2‘2, K2 of 10-2.81, K3 of 10’7'27. and K4 of 10-10.03. However Rosenheim and Pinsker<2l) found that the freezing points of sclutions of hypophosphoric acid were not in accord with Treadwell and Schwarzenbach's values for K1 and KB. Moreover, the molar conductances of pyrophosphoric acid, H4P207, are approximately the same as those for hypophoSphoric acid. But pyrophos- phoric acid is considered to be a stronger acid with ionization constants K1 of lO-O°85. Kg 0f 10‘1'96. is of 10‘5-54, and K4 of 10‘8'44. Although the data is not in good agreement the determination of four ionization constants substantiates

Thesis presented for the Degree of Ph.D. INTRODUCTION. The fact that yellow phosphorus is able to precipitate many heavy metals from solutions of their Salts has been known for a considerable period. If a stick of phosphorus is placed in a solution of silver nitrate or of copper sulphate, the phosphorus gradually becomes covered with a deposit of the metal and acids of phosphorus are found in the solution. The action may be represented as follows: P + M X + H_0 > M + H X + P acids, and continues as long as any free phosphorus remains. The apparent similarity between this action and the displacement of a metal from solutions of its salts by another metal is very marked and has been commented on by more than one investigator. It has even been suggested that phosphorus, which is usually regarded as a typical non-metallic element, does in this case act in the same way as a real metal. There are, ■ indeed, other reactions of phosphorus which point to it being an element of an 'amphoteric1 nature, capable of furnishing both negative and positive ions. It was noticed, however, that in many cases, the action between phosphorus and the metallic Salt solution/ solution was more complicated,and other products such as phosphides of the metal were found.

  • Diluted Thermopressurized Phosphoric Acid: a Gentle Proton Donor for Polysaccharide Acid Depolymerization and (Bio)Processing
    Chapter 3 Diluted Thermopressurized Phosphoric Acid: A Gentle Proton Donor for Polysaccharide Acid Depolymerization and (Bio)processing José Domingos Fontana, Marcela Tiboni and Heidegrid Siebert Koop Additional information is available at the end of the chapter http://dx.doi.org/10.5772/intechopen.68236 Abstract Phosphorus is a very important element for several metabolic pathways in all living organ- isms as exemplified by DNA, RNA, glucose and fructose-P, and adenosine triphosphate (ATP). The whole metabolism of phosphate in any living organism involves the cataly - sis carried out by many enzymes, such as kinases, pyrophosphorylases, isomerases, and phosphatases. Symptoms of hypophosphatemia include neurological dysfunction and dis- ruption of muscle and blood cells and could be caused by malnutrition, failure to absorb phosphate, and metabolic syndromes. Phosphoric acid is widely used as an acidifying agent in a variety of pharmaceutical formulations as an acidulant, flavor, and synergistic antioxidant and sequestering. At the laboratorial and industrial territories, due to safety precautions, phosphoric acid may be considered a valid acid alternative for stronger and risky acids such as sulfuric, hydrochloric, and nitric acids. Furthermore, phosphoric acid, among the mineral acids, is less corrosive for steel and all goods made therefrom. Taking into account all these favorable arguments, the applied research at our laboratory (LQBB) is focused, with success, in the utilization of much diluted and moderately thermopressurized phosphoric acid (o-PA) in the pretreatment of polysaccharides for many biotechnological, as oligosaccharides production, important prebiotics for the human gastrointestinal tract.

The Equations employed by Pebal in his Investigation of Euchlorine. By L. BOLTZMANN(Annulen, 232, 121-124) .-The author points out that the method used by Pebal (this Journal, 1875, 1157), in his investigation on euchlorine, does not prove that euchlorine entirely consists of a, mixture of chlorine tetroxide and clilorine. His results do not exclude the possibility that euchlorine may contain a third constituent, 0,. w. c. w. Continuous Preparation of Oxygen from Bleaching Powder and Cobalt Oxide. By A. BIDET(Bull. Xoc. Chim., 45, 81-83). -A description of a convenient form of apparatus for preparing oxygen gas, in which the gas given off in excess of t,hat actually employed is stored in a reservoir and afterwards used, whilst the generator is being recharged with cobalt oxide. This arrangement is specially adapted for combustions. A. P. Analysis of Air from Cape Horn. By A. MUNTZand E. AUBIN (Couipt. rend., 102, 421--423).-The analyses of a series of twenty samples of air collected at Cape Horn during the months of May, July, and August, give a percentage of oxygen varying between 20.97 and 20.72, the mean being 20.864. This number is slightly below the mean of Regnault’s analyses, but the difference is very small, and it is evident that the atmosphere at Cape Horn has sensibly the same composition as the atmosphere in other parts of the world.
