PREPARATION AND CHARACTERIZATION OF TRIMETHYLHYDRAZINO- AND DIMETHYLHYDROXYLAMINOCHLORO- AND -FLUOROPHOSPHINE

Cl2PN(CH3)N(CH3)2, ClP(N(CH3)N(CH3)2]2, Cl2PN(CH3)OCH3, and ClP[N(CH3)OCH3]2 can be prepared by the reaction of phosphorus trichloride with 1,1,2-trimethylhydrazine or O,N-dimethylhydroxylamine. ClP[N(CH3)N(CH3)2]2 and ClP[N(CH3)OCH3]2 are also formed by the reaction of Cl2PN(CH3)N(CH3)2 with HN(CH3)N(CH3)2 and Cl2PN(CH3)OCH3 with HN(CH3)OCH3, respectively. These chlorophosphines can be fluorinated with metal fluorides to yield the corresponding fluorophosphines. © 1969, American Chemical Society. All rights reserved.
