approximate to 3 or 0.6) fluoro derivatives of N-phosphoryl phosphazen
es (see table 2) as well as N-phosphorylated imidotetrafluorophosphate
s, [F4P=N-P(Y)Cl-2](-) (Y=O, S), and imidopentafluorophosphates, [F5P-
N-P(Y)X(2)](2-) or [F5P-NH-P(O)X(2)](-) (see table 3), are formed. t-B
uNHPCl(2)=N-POCl2 reacts in acetonitrile with Et(3)N or i-Pr(2)EtN to
form a product, representing probably the diazadiphosphetine [t-BuN-PC
l2=N-P(O-)Cl-2](-) (5 b).
