Diphosphine is a phosphane and is a binary phosphorus hydride with the empirical formula P 2 H 4 . Above −99 ° C it is a colorless liquid. It is not stable in air, but ignites spontaneously. In addition, it disproportionates to PH 3 and higher phosphanes at temperatures above −30 ° C. It is a common impurity in commercially available monophosphine .
Manufacturing
Diphosphane can be obtained by hydrolysis of calcium monophosphide (Ca 2 P 2 ):
The hydrolysis of 400 g Ca 2 P 2 at −30 ° C yields about 20 g P 2 H 4 . Other phosphines are produced as impurities.
Properties and reactions
Diphosphane is a colorless liquid which can spontaneously ignite in the air, which decomposes in the presence of traces of acid, at temperatures above −10 ° C (especially when exposed to light) and on rough surfaces. It is miscible with carbon disulfide , pyridine , hydrocarbons, ethers, diethylene glycol monomethyl ether , diethylene glycol dimethyl ether , hexamethylphosphoric acid triamide, and soluble in methanol. It is in the Gauche conformation , with a PP distance of 2.219 Angstroms . The 1 H NMR spectrum consists of 32 lines from the A 2 XX'A ' 2 split.
The reaction of diphosphine with butyllithium leads to various condensed polyphosphines.
Organic diphosphines
Various organic derivatives of diphosphane are known. Some or all of the hydrogen atoms are substituted by organyl radicals. They are synthesized by reductive coupling z. B. from chlorodiphenylphosphine :
The methyl derivative P 2 Me 4 is obtained by reacting thiophosphoryl trichloride with methyl magnesium bromide .
