Chlorodiphenylphosphine is an organophosphorus compound with the formula (C6H5)2PCl, abbreviated Ph2PCl. It is a colourless oily liquid with a pungent odor that is often described as being garlic-like and detectable even in the ppb range. It is useful reagent for introducing the Ph2P group into molecules, which includes many ligands.[2] Like other halophosphines, Ph2PCl is reactive with many nucleophiles such as water and easily oxidized even by air.
Synthesis and reactions
Chlorodiphenylphosphine is produced on a commercial scale from benzene and phosphorus trichloride (PCl3). Benzene reacts with phosphorus trichloride at extreme temperatures around 600 °C to give dichlorophenylphosphine (PhPCl2) and HCl. Redistribution of PhPCl2 in the gas phase at high temperatures results in chlorodiphenylphosphine.[2][3]
- 2 PhPCl2 → Ph2PCl + PCl3
Alternatively such compounds are prepared by redistribution reactions starting with triphenylphosphine and phosphorus trichloride.
- PCl3 + 2 PPh3 → 3 Ph2PCl
Chlorodiphenylphosphine hydrolyzes to give diphenylphosphine oxide. Reduction with sodium affords tetraphenyldiphosphine:
- 2 Ph2PCl + 2 Na → [Ph2P]2 + 2 NaCl
With ammonia and elemental sulfur, it converts to the thiophosphorylamide:[4]
- Ph2PCl + 2 NH3 + S → Ph2P(S)NH2 + NH4Cl
Uses
Chlorodiphenylphosphine, along with other chlorophosphines, is used in the synthesis of various phosphines. A typical route uses Grignard reagents:[3]
- Ph2PCl + MgRX → Ph2PR + MgClX
The phosphines produced from reactions with Ph2PCl are further developed and used as pesticides (such as EPN), stabilizers for plastics (Sandostab P-EPQ), various halogen compound catalysts, flame retardants (cyclic phosphinocarboxylic anhydride), as well as UV-hardening paint systems (used in dental materials) making Ph2PCl an important intermediate in the industrial world.[2][3]
Precursor to diphenylphosphido derivatives
Chlorodiphenylphosphine is used in the synthesis of sodium diphenylphosphide via its reaction with sodium metal in refluxing dioxane.[5]
- Ph2PCl + 2 Na → Ph2PNa + NaCl
Diphenylphosphine can be synthesized in the reaction of Ph2PCl and LiAlH4, the latter usually used in excess.[6]
- 4 Ph2PCl + LiAlH4 → 4 Ph2PH + LiCl + AlCl3
Both Ph2PNa and Ph2PH are also used in the synthesis of organophosphine ligands.
Characterization
The quality of chlorodiphenylphosphine is often checked by 31P NMR spectroscopy.[7]
