Chemical compound
Phosphorus tricyanide is an inorganic compound with the chemical formula P (C N )3 . It can be produced by the reaction of phosphorus trichloride and trimethyl(iso)cyanosilane.[ 2] [clarification needed ] The reaction of phosphorus tribromide and silver cyanide in diethyl ether produce phosphorus tricyanide too.[ 1]
PBr3 + 3 AgCN → P(CN)3 + 3 AgBr
Its thermal decomposition can produce graphite phase C3 N3 P .[ 3]
Phosphorus tricyanide reacts with [Re(CO)5 ]+ [BF4 ]− to form {P[CN-Re(CO)5 ]3 }[BF4 ]3 .[ 4]
