The existence of free, gas-phase phosphorus mononitride was confirmed spectroscopically in 1934 by Nobel laureate, Gerhard Herzberg, and coworkers. [8] J. Curry, L. Herzberg, and G. Herzberg made the accidental discovery after observing new bands in the UV region from 2375 to 2992 Å [9] following an electric discharge within an air-filled tube that had been earlier exposed to phosphorus.
Phosphorus nitride refers to several chemical compounds of phosphorus and nitrogen: Phosphorus mononitride; Tetraphosphorus hexanitride; Triphosphorus pentanitride
Phosphorus monoxide is an unstable radical inorganic compound with molecular formula P O. [2] Phosphorus monoxide is notable as one of the few molecular compounds containing phosphorus that has been detected outside of Earth. Other phosphorus containing molecules found in space include PN, PC, PC 2, HCP and PH 3.
Antimony nitride, also called antimony mononitride, is an inorganic compound with the chemical formula Sb N. Containing only antimony and nitrogen, this binary nitride material is an interpnictogen. It is the antimony analog of phosphorus mononitride. Antimony nitride forms when antimony trichloride dissolves in liquid ammonia. [1]
Stable and persistent phosphorus radicals are phosphorus-centred radicals that are isolable and can exist for at least short periods of time. [1] Radicals consisting of main group elements are often very reactive and undergo uncontrollable reactions, notably dimerization and polymerization . [ 2 ]
Phosphoryl nitride. Phosphoryl nitride in chemistry is a reactive intermediate with the structure OPN. [1] It is a linear oxygen phosphorus nitrogen molecule with a formal double bond between P and O and a triple bond between P and N.
P 3 N 5 is thermally less stable than either BN or Si 3 N 4, with decomposition to the elements occurring at temperatures above 850 °C: [1]. P 3 N 5 → 3 PN + N 2 4 PN → P 4 + 2 N 2. It is resistant to weak acids and bases, and insoluble in water at room temperature, however it hydrolyzes upon heating to form the ammonium phosphate salts [NH 4] 2 HPO 4 and [NH 4]H 2 PO 4.
Meteorites are often studied as part of cosmochemistry. Cosmochemistry (from Ancient Greek κόσμος (kósmos) 'universe' and χημεία (khēmeía) 'chemistry') or chemical cosmology is the study of the chemical composition of matter in the universe and the processes that led to those compositions. [1]
