Abstract
Our results indicate that the best method for the preparation of poly(triphenylstibine oxide)_is the oxidation of triphenylstibine in acetone with 30% hydrogen peroxide, followed by the removal of water and excess peroxide with refluxing benzene. A less preferred alternative method involves the hydrolysis of triphenylstibine dichloride with alcoholic potassium hydroxide and the subsequent heating of the isolated solid (C 6H 5) 3Sb(OH) 2 until no hydroxyl bands can be detected by infrared spectroscopy. Solubility, PMR, infrared, Raman, thermal (DTA and TGA), mass spectral, and X-ray powder data are reported. The products are readily identified by characteristics infrared and Raman absorptions in the region between 800 and 400 cm -1. The mass spectral data, although inconclusive when trying to indentify impurities in the samples, corroborate the polymeric nature of triphenylstibine oxide.
