Monitoring of the insecticide trichlorfon by phosphorus-31 nuclear magnetic resonance (31P NMR) spectroscopy

Trichlorfon is an organophosphorus insecticide, which is extensively being used for protection of fruit crops. Trichlorfon is a thermal labile compound, which cannot be easily determined by gas chromatography (GC) and has no suitable group for sensitive detection by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). In this study, a ³¹P nuclear magnetic resonance (³¹P NMR) has been described for monitoring of trichlorfon without any separation step. The quantitative works of ³¹P NMR spectroscopy has been performed in the presence of an internal standard (hexamethylphosphoramide). Limit of detection (LOD) for this method has been found to be 55 mg L⁻¹, without any sample preparation, and the linear working range was 150-5500 mg L⁻¹. Relative standard deviation (R.S.D.%) of the method for three replicates within and between days was obtained ≤9%. The average recovery efficiency was approximately 99-112%. This method was applied for monitoring trichlorfon in a commercial insecticide sample and tomato sample.     

Study of ion exchange selectivity of organic ions by using (31)P NMR spectroscopy

Ion exchange distribution of the phenylphosphoric acid has been studied on various types of chloride form strong base resins as a function of pH at 25 °C, at 0.1 M ionic strength. Equilibrium measurements were supplemented by the study of pH dependence of the ³¹P NMR spectra of the resin-phase phenylphosphate species. Equations were derived to describe the pH dependence of the overall distribution coefficient and the chemical shift of the resin-phase solute species. Experimental data were evaluated by using these model equations and the values of the individual distribution coefficients, ion exchange selectivity coefficients and the resin-phase ³¹P chemical shifts of the mono- and divalent ions have been calculated. Comparison of distribution data of the individual species corroborated the significance of the role of hydrophobic interaction in the selectivity of organic ion exchange processes. A well-defined correlation between the ion exchange selectivity and the resin-phase ³¹P NMR chemical shift data has been pointed out.     

Tris(dimethylamino)phosphine Selenide Complexes of Cadmium(II): Synthesis and Multinuclear (31P, 77Se,and 113Cd) NMR Characterization in Solution

The complexes CdL₄(ClO₄)₂ (1), CdL₂(NO₃)₂ (2), and CdL₂Cl₂ (3) (L = (Me₂N)₃P(Se)) have been prepared and characterized by elemental analysis, conductivity measurements, IR, and multinuclear (³¹P, ⁷⁷Se, and ¹¹³Cd) NMR spectroscopy. ³¹P and ⁷⁷Se NMR data were informative of changes associated with complex formation. The structure of the prepared complexes was further confirmed in solution by their ¹¹³Cd NMR spectra, which show a quintuplet for the perchlorate complex and a triplet for each of the nitrate and chloride complexes due, respectively, to coupling with four and two equivalent phosphorus atoms, consistent with a four coordinate tetrahedral geometry for the cadmium center. The NMR data are discussed and compared with those reported for related complexes.     

The Synthesis and 31P NMR Spectral Studies of Cyclophosphazenes

A modified method for preparing large-scale quantities of pure hexachlorocyclophosphazene (N₃P₃Cl₆) and octachlorocyclotetraphosphazene (N₄P₄Cl₈), phosphorus pentachloride with ammonium chloride, in the presence of zinc chloride, has been developed. The time of the reaction and the quantities of the catalyst are also studied. It is found that the optimum reaction time is 1.5 h and by-products are remarkably reduced by addition of 10% zinc chloride. As indicated by the ³¹ P NMR spectra, the synthesis and separation of cyclophosphazenes can be accomplished in moderate yield of tetramer (39%) and good yield of trimer (83%).     

31P NMR and HPLC Investigations of the Cyclophosphamide Metabolite,Phosphoramide Mustard

Abstract

Phosphoramide mustard (PM), a key active metabolite of the widely used anticancer drug cyclophosphamide (CP), can exist in several closely-related ionized, cyclized and substituted forms. We have developed a high pressure liquid chromatographic (HPLC) method for analysing serum concentrations of PM in order to relate these serum concentrations to toxicity and efficacy of treatment of CP. ³¹p NMR spectroscopy is used to verify the HPLC peak homology of the proposed PM peak.     

Tin(IV) Tetrachloride Complexes with Bis-(Dialkylamino)phosphoryl Fluoride: A Multinuclear (119Sn, 31P, 19F,and 1H) NMR Characterization in Solution

The two octahedral complexes SnCl₄·2(O)PF(NR₂)₂ (R = Me or Et) were prepared from reaction of SnCl₄ with the ligand (R₂N)₂P(O)F in anhydrous CHCl₃. The new adducts have been characterized by elemental analysis, IR, and multinuclear (¹¹⁹Sn, ³¹P, ¹⁹F, and ¹H) NMR spectroscopy. The NMR data show that the adducts exist in solution as a mixture of cis and trans isomers with markedly different proportions. When compared with previously described hexamethylphosphoramide (HMPA) and trimethylphosphate (TMPA) analogues, our results indicate that the cis isomer is the predominant species in solution. Low temperature ³¹P and ¹¹⁹Sn NMR spectra show that the compounds partially dissociate in dichloromethane.     

Tris(dialkylamino)phosphine Chalcogenide Complexes of Tin(IV) Chloride: A Multinuclear (31P, 77Se,and 119Sn) NMR Characterization

Abstract

Four octahedral complexes of the type SnCl₄.2L [L = (R₂N)₃P(E): E = Se; R = Me(1), Et(2) and E = S; R = Me(3), Et(4)] have been studied in solution by multinuclear (³¹P, ⁷⁷Se, and ¹¹⁹Sn) NMR spectroscopy. ³¹P and ⁷⁷Se NMR data were informative of changes associated with complex formation. The solution structure of the complexes was confirmed by their ¹¹⁹Sn NMR spectra that showed two triplet features for each complex, attributed to a mixture of the expected cis and trans isomers. The triplet signal is due to the coupling with two equivalent phosphorus atoms, consistent with an octahedral geometry around the tin center. In addition, density functional theory (DFT)/B3LYP calculations have been carried out to support the interpretations of NMR data. The results are discussed and compared with those reported for related complexes.

31P NMR Studies of Diethyl Phosphite Derived Nanocrystalline Hydroxyapatite

³¹P nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy was used to determine the structure of the intermediate species of sol derived from triethyl phosphite, calcium diethoxide and acetic acid. NMR spectral data revealed that the reaction proceeds via a dialkyl phosphite intermediate. The use of a dialkyl phosphite precursor (diethyl phosphite) with calcium diethoxide eliminated the aging time required in triethylphosphite method and offered an effective sol-gel procedure for monophasic hydroxyapatite.     

Characterizing phosphorus in environmental and agricultural samples by 31P nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy

Phosphorus nuclear magnetic resonance (³¹P-NMR) spectroscopy has advanced our knowledge of organic phosphorus (P) in soils and environmental samples more than any other technique. This paper reviews the use of ³¹P-NMR spectroscopy for soil, water and other environmental samples. The requirements for a successful solid-state or solution ³¹P-NMR experiment are described, including experimental set-up, sample preparation, extractants, experimental conditions, and post-experimental processing. Next, the literature on solid-state and solution ³¹P-NMR spectroscopy in environmental samples is reviewed, including papers on: methods; P transformations; agricultural, forest and natural ecosystem soil studies; humic acid and particle size separations; manure, compost and sludge studies; and water research, including freshwater, estuary and marine studies. Future research needs are also discussed as well as suggestions to improve results, such as increased standardization among research groups.

The Reaction Activity of Aromatic Carbonyl Compounds with Diphenylphosphine Oxide Studied by 31P NMR

Abstract

A series of α-hydroxyphosphine oxides were prepared by the reactions of diphenylphosphine oxide and aromatic carbonyl compounds and characterized by ¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR, ³¹P NMR, FT-IR, ESI-MS, and HR-MS spectra. The reaction rates and experimental conditions of aromatic aldehydes and aromatic ketones were obviously different due to the activity of their carbonyls. The different substituents of the aromatic aldehydes affected the reaction rate too, and the quantitative reactivity of their substituent conformed to the Hammett equation. The results were confirmed by ³¹P NMR spectroscopy.     

31P NMR NON-EQUIVALENCE OF THE DIASTEREOISOMERIC PHOSPHONODIDEPSIPEPTIDES. PART II1

Abstract

³¹P chemical shifts are reported for 24 different models of diastereoisomeric phosphonodidepsipeptides coupled from the N-protected L-aminoacids and dibenzyl esters of chiral 1-hydroxyalkylphosphonic acids. The ³¹P NMR nonequivalence variations with the changing of didepsipeptide structure, solvent and temperature were investigated. Amide cis-trans isomerism were observed in the case of Z-L-proline derived didepsipeptides.     

The preparation and analysis of fluoro-polyphosphates by F, P, 2D F-P HETCOR and 2D P-P COSY NMR

A complex mixture of fluoro-polyphosphates (FPPs) and polyphosphates was prepared by heating a mixture of NaF and sodium tripolyphosphate (STPP) at 600 °C in nitrogen atmosphere. Two-dimensional ³¹P-¹⁹F heteronuclear correlation spectroscopy (HETCOR) NMR was developed in identifying the atomic connection between F and P in the mixed FPPs. ¹⁹F, ³¹P and ³¹P-³¹P correlation spectroscopy (COSY) NMR methods were employed to identify the components of the mixture and measure the chain length of each FPP ingredient. NMR results clearly demonstrated that the mixture contains four kinds of fluoro-phosphates with different chain length of polyphosphate, which are monofluoro-phosphate (MFP), monofluoro-dipolyphosphate (MFDPP), monofluoro-tripolyphosphate (MFTPP) and difluoro-tripolyphosphate (DFTPP). Other phosphates and polyphosphates also were found in the mixture.

Determination of 31P,31P coupling constants in cyclotriphosphazenes and their influence on 1H and 13C NMR spectra of phosphorus substituents

¹H and ¹³C NMR spectra of symmetrically substituted cyclotriphosphazenes exhibit second‐order effects. The influence of the ³¹P,³¹P coupling constants between ring phosphorus atoms on these effects was studied. Some values of this coupling constant between phosphorus bearing identical substituents were measured using ¹³C satellites of the ³¹P signals or by introduction of a chiral substituent on the third phosphorus atom.

Cadmium(II) complexes with phosphine tellurides: synthesis and multinuclear (31P, 125Te,and 113Cd) NMR characterization in solution

New cadmium(II) complexes with phosphine telluride ligands of the type CdX₂(R₃PTe)_n [X?=?ClO₄^?, n?=?4: R?=?n-Bu (1), Me₂?N (2), C₅H₁₀?N (3), C₄H₈?N (4) or OC₄H₈?N (5); X?=?Cl^–, n?=?2: R?=?n-Bu (6), Me₂?N (7), C₅H₁₀?N (8), C₄H₈?N (9) or OC₄H₈?N (10)] have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analyses, IR and multinuclear (³¹P, ¹²⁵Te, and ¹¹³Cd) NMR spectroscopy. In particular, the solution structures of these complexes were confirmed by ¹¹³Cd NMR at low temperature, which displays a quintuplet for each of the perchlorate complexes and a triplet for each of the chloride complexes due to coupling with four and two equivalent phosphorus atoms, respectively, indicating a four-coordinate tetrahedral geometry for the metal center. These multiplet features were further accompanied by one bond Te–Cd couplings, clearly showing that the ligand is coordinated to the metal through tellurium. The results are discussed and compared with those obtained for closely related phosphine chalcogenide analogs.
