“…Synthesis of 2,4',4',6',6',10-hexachloro-4',4',6',6'-tetrahydrospiro[12H-dibenzo[d,g]- [1,3,2]dioxaphosphocin-6,2'λ 5 - [1,3,5,2,4,6]triazaphosphorine] (spiro) (1) and 2,6,8,8,10,14-hexachloro-8,8- [1,7,3,5,2,4,6]-dioxadiazatriphosphacyclododecine (ansa) (2) Compounds (1) and (2) (3) tert-Butylamine (0.670 g; 9.20×10 -3 mol) in dry THF (50 mL) was added drop wise to a stirred solution of compound 1 (0.50 g; 9.2×10 -4 mol) in dry THF (150 mL) at -20 °C over 1 h, with argon flowing over the reaction mixture. Then the mixture was allowed to come to ambient temperature, boiled under reflux (24 h) using a condenser fitted with a CaCl 2 drying tube.…”
