Abstract
Microwave heating technique was applied to the preparation of dialkyl dithiophosphoric acids from the reaction of alcohol with phosphorus pentasulphide. A microwave oven (CEM-MDS 2000) was utilized to determine the preparation conditions for the best yield of dialkyl dithiophosphoric acids under atmospheric pressure at various times and power. Six different (C 4 -C 9 ) chain-length of dialkyl dithiophosphoric acids were studied. All experiments were performed in an open Teflon (poly-tetrafluoroethylene) vessel. The results obtained showed that the reaction of dialkyl dithiophosphoric acids can be achieved more rapidly using microwave heating than using conventional procedures.
