(Vinyloxy)fluorocyclotriphosphazenes.
Abstract
The reactions of the lithium enolate of acetaldehyde, LiOCHCH2, with hexafluorocyclotriphosphazene, N3P3F6, lead to the series of (vinyloxy)fluorocyclotriphosphazene, N3P3F6-n (OCH=CH2)n (n=2-5). The 1H NMR data shows that throughout the entire series, the substituent is bound through the oxygen end of the ambidentate enolate. The reaction shows a reluctance to go past the trisubstituted stage and the fluorine atom in N3P3F(OCH=CH2)5 cannot be removed even under forcing conditions. Evidence from the 31H, 19F and 31P NMR spectra shows that a non-geminal pathway is exclusively followed. Differences in the reaction patterns with enolate anions followed by N3P3F6 and N3P3Cl6 are discussed.
