phosphorus pentachloride usage and synthesis |
chemical properties | yellowish crystalline powder and scales |
general description | phosphorus pentachloride is a greenish-yellow crystalline solid with an irritating odor. phosphorus pentachloride is decomposed by water to form hydrochloric and phosphoric acid and heat. this heat may be sufficient to ignite surrounding combustible material. phosphorus pentachloride is corrosive to metals and tissue. long term exposure to low concentrations or short term exposure to high concentrations can result in adverse health effects from inhalation. |
reactivity profile | phosphorus pentachloride is a lightly yellow, fuming crystalline material, highly caustic, corrosive and toxic. flammable by chemical reaction. violent exothermic reaction with water or steam. when heated to decomposition phosphorus pentachloride emits highly toxic fumes of chlorides and oxides of phosphorus. explosive reaction with alkaline metals (sodium, potassium), urea. ignites on contact with fluorine. violent reaction with aluminum, chlorine trioxide, hydroxylamine, magnesium oxide, nitrobenzene, phosphorus(iii) oxide, potassium. carbamates form explosive products [bretherick, 5th ed., 1995, p. 1360]. reaction with the mixture of chlorine and chlorine dioxide causes explosion [mellor, 1941, vol. 2, p. 281; 1940, vol. 8, p. 1013]. |
health hazard | phosphorus pentachloride can cause death due to pulmonary edemaor by circulatory shock. |
fire hazard | when heated to decomposition, phosphorus pentachloride emits highly toxic fumes of chlorides and chlorine. will react with water or steam to produce heat and toxic and corrosive fumes. reacts violently with moisture, chlorine trioxide, fluorine hydroxylamine, magnesium oxides, diphosphorus trioxide, sodium and potassium. decomposed by water to form hydrogen chloride, phosphoric acids, corrosive materials, and heat. this heat may be sufficient to ignite surrounding combustible materials. incompatible with water, magnesium oxide, chemically active metals: sodium, potassium; alkalis; aluminum; chlorine dioxide; chlorine; diphosphorus trioxide; fluorine; hydroxylamine; magnesium oxide; 3'-methyl-2-nitrobenzanilide; nitrobenzene; sodium; urea; water. |
