Synthesis and spectroscopic properties of geminal-bis(tertbutylamino) phosphazenes obtained by the reaction of spiro and ansa phenoxyphosphazenes with the tert-butylamine and the crystal structure of 2,2-[2,2’-metheylenebis(4-chlorophenoxy)]-4,4-bis(tert-butylamino)-6,6-dichlorocyclo- 2λ5,4λ5,6λ5-triphosphazatriene

Abstract

The condensation reactions of partly substituted spiro and ansa phenoxycyclotriphosphazenes, N3P3[2,2'-methylenebis(4-chlorophenoxide)]Cl4 (1 and 2) with tert-butylamine produce disubstituted geminal-bis(tert-butylamino)phenoxyphosphazene derivatives (3 and 4). The structures of these compounds were characterized by elemental analysis, and IR, 1H-, 13C-, 31P-NMR and mass spectroscopic techniques. Compound 3 was also examined by X-ray crystallography and found to be crystallized in the monoclinic space group P21/n with the unit cell parameters: a = 10.842(4), b = 9.375(5), c = 29.104(11) ?, ? = 99.25(3)?, V = 2920(2) ?3, Dx = 1.404 g cm-3.
