Crystal Structure of N-Benzoyl-N′,N″-bis(2-ethylhexyl)phosphoric triamide

Abstract

N-Benzoyl-N′,N″-bis(2-ethylhexyl)phosphoric triamide crystallizes in the triclinic space group P1 with a = 9.9333(16)A b = 10.5356(17)A c = 12.343(2)A α = 77.34(0)° β = 85.68(0)° γ = 85.09(0)° and Z = 2. The crystal structure indicates disorder in two amine groups that are connected to a phosphor atom. The molecule is obtained in the form of a one-dimensional polymer via intermolecular N-H…O hydrogen bonds. The environment of the three nitrogen atoms is planar, and the P-N bond lenghts are significantly shorter than the P-N single bond.
