CHEMISTRY OF THE TRIFLUOROMETHYL GROUP: PART IV. DIPHENYLTRIFLUOROMETHYLPHOSPHINE AND COMPLEX FORMATION BY PHENYLTRIFLUOROMETHYLPHOSPHINES
Three methods of preparing diphenyltrifluoromethylphosphine are described. The hydrolysis of the phosphine to diphenylphosphinic acid and fluoroform, and the formation of dibromo-and diiodo-phosphoranes from the phosphine are reported. The adducts (C6H5)3P•BF3 and (C6H5)2CF3P•BF3 are described and the latter is found to be the less stable. With platinum (II) chloride, the complexes trans-[(C6H5)2PCF3]2PtCl2 and trans-[C6H5PCF3)2]2PtCl2 are formed. The properties of the BF3 adducts and PtCl2 complexes are interpreted in terms of the electronegativity and size of the trifluoromethyl group.
