  2. Phosphorus pentachloride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phosphorus_pentachloride

    Phosphorus pentachloride is the chemical compound with the formula PCl 5. It is one of the most important phosphorus chlorides/oxychlorides, others being PCl 3 and POCl 3. PCl 5 finds use as a chlorinating reagent. It is a colourless, water-sensitive solid, although commercial samples can be yellowish and contaminated with hydrogen chloride.

  3. Phosphorus halide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phosphorus_halide

    Phosphorus pentachloride, phosphorus pentabromide, and phosphorus heptabromide are ionic in the solid and liquid states; PCl 5 is formulated as PCl 4 + PCl 6 –, but in contrast, PBr 5 is formulated as PBr 4 + Br −, and PBr 7 is formulated as PBr 4 + Br 3 −. They are widely used as chlorinating and brominating agents in organic chemistry.

  4. Phosphoryl chloride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phosphoryl_chloride

    Phosphoryl chloride (commonly called phosphorus oxychloride) is a colourless liquid with the formula P O Cl 3. It hydrolyses in moist air releasing phosphoric acid and fumes of hydrogen chloride. It is manufactured industrially on a large scale from phosphorus trichloride and oxygen or phosphorus pentoxide. [4] It is mainly used to make ...

    Alkyl chlorides are most easily prepared by treating alcohols with thionyl chloride (SOCl 2) or phosphorus pentachloride (PCl 5), but also commonly with sulfuryl chloride (SO 2 Cl 2) and phosphorus trichloride (PCl 3): ROH + SOCl 2 → RCl + SO 2 + HCl 3 ROH + PCl 3 → 3 RCl + H 3 PO 3 ROH + PCl 5 → RCl + POCl 3 + HCl

  6. von Braun amide degradation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Von_Braun_amide_degradation

    The von Braun amide degradation is the chemical reaction of a monosubstituted amide with phosphorus pentachloride or thionyl chloride to give a nitrile and an organohalide. [1] It is named after Julius Jacob von Braun, who first reported the reaction. [2] [3] The von Braun amide degradation

  9. Hypervalent molecule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypervalent_molecule

    For silicon and phosphorus bond lengths, charge densities, and Mulliken bond overlap, populations were calculated for tetra and pentacoordinated species by this ab initio approach. [36] Addition of a fluoride ion to tetracoordinated silicon shows an overall average increase of 0.1 electron charge, which is considered insignificant.
