Synthese linearer und verzweigter Phosphazene aus N-silylierten Phosphorylamiden

Synthesis of Lineary and Branched Phosphazenes from N-silylated Phosphoryl Amides The use of N-silylated phosphoryl amides in the reaction with PCl₅ favours the KIRSANOV reaction and reduces undesirable substitution reactions. However, silylated monoamides, X₂P(O)NHSiMe₃ (X = OEt, NEt₂), do not give the expected trichlorophosphazenes but the isomeric N-dichlorophosphoryl phosphazenes, Cl₂P(O)? N?PClX₂, which are also formed in the reaction of (EtO)₂P(O)NCl₂ with PCl₅. As the first phosphoryl-P, P-bis(trichlorophosphazene) (EtO)P(O)(N?PCl₃)₂ could be obtained in the reaction of PCl₅ with the silylated diamide (EtO)P(O)(NHSiMe₃)₂. Tris reactivity of silylated amides to P? Cl compounds decreases in the row PCl₅ > POCl₃ > CIP(O)(OEt)₂ > ClP(O)(NEt₂)₂. In the reaction with phosphoryl chlorides the preferred formation of compounds with P? NH? P bridges could not be observed.
