Abstract:
Reaction rates of the ethanolysis and hydrolysis of the phenyl- and methylpolyphosphate-esters and of tetraphenylpyrophosphate were measured by potentiometric titration methods. Exceptionally high rate constants were obtained for the solvolysis of these compounds, some reactions occurring with half-times of less than 10 seconds. The phosphorylating activity of the phenylpolyphosphateester on polyfunctional nucleophilic compounds (SN 2P -reaction) was tested and shown to exceed the activity of the conventional agent diphenylphosphoro-chloridate considerably. The catalytic effects of dimethylformamide were measured under several conditions and were shown to be complex solvent phenomena rather than conventional catalysis. The reactivity of the polyphosphate-esters is discussed with respect to their structure as well as the reactivity of P -O -P-bonds as a function of their ligands.
