TRIS(2-CYANOETHYL)PHOSPHINE

Conditions: temp:0.00; pressure:0.00; stir:; See reaction.notes.procedure_details.

Procedure: 135.2 g (0.7 mole) of tris-(2-cyanoethyl)-phosphine are dissolved, under nitrogen, in 500 ml of boiling acetonitrile and then 130.2 g (0.7 mole) of 1-iodo-2-methoxyethane are added. The mixture is refluxed for 12 hours. After rapid filtration of the hot solution and cooling, the reaction product crystallises out and is collected by suction filtration and dried in vacuo at 60° C. The mixture is refluxed for 12 hours After rapid filtration of the hot solution cooling the reaction product crystallises out is collected by suction filtration dried in vacuo at 60° C.
