Nitrogen Phosphide Synthisis?




24 SCl2 + 64 NH3 → 4 S4N4 + S8 + 48 NH4Cl

or

4 NH4Cl + 6 S2Cl2 → S4N4 + 16 HCl + S8

using phousphours in the reaction instead of sulfur
could nitrogen phosphide be made what are its properties

-------------------------------
ive read some where that these compounds should never be mixed
but im not sure what they form if they are

acetic acid and ethylene glycol-->??

ammonium nitrate or ammonium chloride with chlorine --> i know it makes nitrogen trichloride by what is the other products

HF and ammonia--> doesnt that make ammonium fluoride don't know why that is bad its not toxic

Well Phosphide of nitrogen has been know since 1858.

Mellor VIII:123 Discuses phosphorus nitride P3S5. Not noted to
be energetic.

Ive heard of this compound before from a book.
this is a weak primary explosive and very sensitive.
but its structure is very interesting..
you can have a try

Pure, stoichiometric, hydrogen-free, and crystalline phosphorus nitride P3N5 has been obtained for the first time by reaction of (PNCl2)3 and NH4Cl between 770 and 1050 K
--------
The reaction of PCl5 and NH4Cl affords substances with the empirical formula PNCl2:> then to phosphorus nitride [1] Purification by sublimation gives mainly the trimer (PNCl2)3 and tetramer (PNCl2)4. These rings were described by Liebig in 1832[2][3] in his study of the reaction of PCl5 and NH3:

PCl5 + NH4Cl → 1/n (NPCl2)n + 4 HCl

Typically reactions are conducted in chlorobenzene solution.
--------
in his study of the reaction of PCl5 and NH3: i think if i just react the two that should make phosphorus nitride which i had the wrong name on my title as it should be this
also what are rthe properties of this conpound what is it reactive with reaction with water? what stable environment to preform this reaction under.

as stated in one source

What was the information source of your synthesis?

About your signature:

1 I think they under go exothermic esterfaction
2 NCl3 is explosive. In addition to NCl3 you get less chlorinated amines such as NH2Cl and NHCl2. It's an interesting combination but a very deadly one to actually mix
3. Ammonium flouride is TOXIC. It's one of the most toxic flouride salts.

oh thats not my signature i was asking some more questions but did not want to make a whole other post just for those small questions
thanks for the answers those were puzzling me
for number three i thought i would form nitrogen trifloride NF3

HF + ammonia yeilds ammonium fluoride. Not NF3. BTW unless you are doing plasma ashing or making semiconductors NF3 wouldn't be of any use to you. You might be surprised to find out That NF3 is a very stable nitrogen trihalide that exists as a gas. It's not explosive like the other Nitrogen Trihalides. This has alot to do with the size of the fluorine atom as well as it's chemistry.

Ammonium fluoride and Ammonium Bifluoride are about as dangerous as HF. They will burn you and poison you. they also etch glass. They are used in glass etching pastes sold at hobby shops.

A research team lead by Thomas Klapötke has produced a compound with the structure
P3N3(N3)6, a hexagonal ring containing alternating phosphorous and nitrogen atoms, with two azido groups on each phosphorous atom. The ring appears to be aromatic.
http://www.chemie.uni-muenchen.de/ac/klapoetke/?menu=news
http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/anie.200601670/ab...

It is called hexaazidocyclotriphosphazene, and is a sensitive liquid explosive. It explodes at 220 °C. It was probably prepared by treating hexachlorophosphazene with sodium azide.

The hexahydrazide also exists.
P3N3(NHNH2)6
R. J. A. Otto and L. F. Audrieth. J. American Chemical Society 80, 3575 (1958)

Potentially many interesting energetic salts could be prepared from this compound...

Apparently P3N5 is not explosive, as it decomposes at 800degC.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phosphide

The term you use is actually incorrect, since nitrogen is more electronegative than phosphorus...

Assuming that you mean to say a nitrogen triple-bonded to a phosphorus atom...

Knowing that nitrogen gas is incredibly unreactive and that triple bonds store a LOT of energy (the only way to make C-C triple bonds is arc furnaces or using alkali metal amides (explosive in moist air!) to cause DOUBLE elimination reactions on vicinal alkyl dihalides), the gas would probably be either incredibly uninterestingly unreactive like nitrogen OR so energetically unstable that it just spontaneously dissociates to nitrogen gas and phosphorus solid.

This being said the only possible way might be to use high energy UV radiation to create atomic nitrogen and atomic phosphorus and hope something happens, however knowing that phosphorus can form polyatomic ions of many different charges you'd be incredibly hard pressed to make any PN gas.

However what I said was just somewhat educated speculation, your best bet would be to ask a computational chemist. :)

...OR, more likely, the triple bond in PΞN would have properties somewhere between those two extreme examples you mentioned.

The compound "PN" typically exists as a polymer.
