ORGANO-PHOSPHORUS COMPOUNDS
Abstract
The present Technical Report No. V, on the work done under the subject contract, covers the quarter June 1 to August 31, 1950. During this period the synthesis and bench scale evaluation of bis-phosphorus compounds have been emphasized in view of the promising leads disclosed during the first year of work. A few preparations have been repeated either because of anomolous early results or because of desire to investigate certain materials further. Attention is now being given to preparative methods amenable to handling in larger scale to provide samples for Motor Laboratory testing and more comprehensive bench scale evaluation. In particular the testing of products not purified by distillation to avoid the need for tedious molecular distillations, is underway. The total numbers of compounds produced this quarter are as follows: phosphine oxides, 1 (total for five quarters, 10); phosphinates, 5 (19); phosphonates, 14 (35, of which 2 are repeats); phosphates 2 (2); miscellaneous (usually as intermediates in preparative procedures), 5 (10); grand total, 27 (76).
