Synthesis,Characterization, and Crystal Structure of 1,3‐Dipentafluorophenyl‐2,2,2,4,4,4‐hexazido‐1,3‐diaza‐2,4‐diphosphetidine

1,3‐Dipentafluorophenyl‐2,2,2,4,4,4‐hexazido‐1,3‐diaza‐2,4‐diphosphetidine ( 1 ) was synthesized by the reaction of (C₆F₅)NPCl₃]₂ with trimethylsilyl azide in CH₂Cl₂ and characterized by multinuclear NMR and vibrational spectroscopy. The molecular structure of the compound was determined by single‐crystal X‐ray structure analysis. (C₆F₅)NP(N₃)₃]₂ crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2₁/n with a = 9.6414(2), b = 7.4170(1) and c = 15.9447(4) Å, β = 94.4374(9)°, with 2 formula units per unit cell. The bond situation in (C₆F₅)NP(N₃)₃]₂ has been studied on the basis of NBO analysis. The antisymmetric stretching vibration of the azide groups is discussed. The structural diversity of 1 and 1,3‐diphenyl‐2,2,2,4,4,4‐hexazido‐1,3‐diaza‐2,4‐diphosphetidine in solution and in the solid state depending on the aryl substituent at the nitrogen atom is discussed.
