Abstract
The formation of pyrophosphates from phosphorus monoamidates was studied by TGA associated with chromatographic techniques upto 320°. Above this temperature the salts decomposed completely. Other compounds were also formed: diamidophosphoric acid aryl esters, pyrophosphorus amidic acids, cyclohexylamine, phenols and a number of minor thermoproducts. The influence of substituents attached to the aromatic ring on the over-all rate of decomposition reaction showed the order: t-Bu > Me > H > Cl. Anomalous results were found for NO 2. Second order rate constants were measured. A mechanism in two steps is suggested for the reaction investigated. Initial formation of free phosphoramidic acid as proposed by Clark appears to be unnecessary. Pyrolysis stequiometric equation was proposed.
