Synthesis of a Novel Cyclotriphosphazene by Using Xanthydrol Oxygen Containing Ligand

Abstract

<em>A new derivative of Cyclotriphosphazene with xanthydrol as the oxygen-containing ligand was synthesized. Firstly Hexaclorocyclotriphosphazene was obtained </em><em>Hexaclorocyclotriphosphazene</em><em> from ammonium chloride and phosphorus pentachloride reaction and then the deprotonated xanthydrol was reacted with Hexaclorocyclotriphosphazene in the ratio of 6:1 in dry toluene as the solvent. All of the Cl atoms were substituted with hydroxyl groups of ligand to give a new product with (NP (C₁₄H₁₀O)₂)₃ formula. This product was identified by a series of spectroscopic techniques including FTIR, ³¹P NMR, ¹³C NMR, ¹H NMR and mass spectroscopy. Analyses were performed to confirm the formation of the designed product and structure.</em>
