The properties and applicatione of alkyl esters of. phosphorie acid are discussed. From a commercial standpoint the esters of greatest interest are mixtures of monoalkyl and dialkyl hydrogen phosphates. In these acid esters hydrogen is replaced by various basic groups including sodium, potassium, ammonia, and amines. Data are presented on sueh physical properties as solubility, freezing point, specific gravity, viscosity, and conductance of solutions. Chemical properties inrlude stability t o hydrolysis and corrosiveness to metals. The outstanding property of mixed lower alkyl phosphates is their high solubility in water. Their water solutions exhibit low

IN RECENT years a number of new aliphatic estem of phosphoric acid have been introduced. The stimulus for the development of these new compounds has come in part from the in& production of elemental phosphorus which has led to larger output at lower prices of such compounds as phosphorua oxychloride and phosphorus pentoxide; them are eaeantial magenta for the production of esters. The eaters of orthophosphoric acid may he represented by the type formulas: (tertiary ester) (RO) \

freezing points, good humectancy, high conductivity, and good stability. Furthermore, they are not particularly corrosive. The properties of concentrated water solutions of several of the alkyl phosphates are of advantage for certain industrial applications. Several esters are antistatic agents in the spinning of textile fihers. Ammonium alkyl phosphates are useful in flameproofing cloth and paper. They possess an advantage over inorganic phosphates as flameproofing agents in that they can be exposed to lower relative humidities without crystallization. Other possible applications for the alkyl phosphates are indicated.

~tmdantefor plastics, particularly for the cellulom eaters. Triphenyl phosphate is also an important article of commerce. It occurs in the form of white Wes and is used in the fireproosng and stabilizing of cellulose esters and as an additive to lubricants. Newer tertiary eaters are the trimethyl and triethyl phosphates which are colorless liquide, are stable at mom temperature, but tend to hydrolym at elevated ternperatmw. Same specialid applications have been d e veloped for them compounds. The pure monoalkyl and didkyl esters have been prepared and described (f.9). This article wilI be con6ned to the mixturea of primary and seoondary eaters obtained by the mm tion of the lower aliphatic dcohols with phwphorua pentoxide. The unreadedhydroxyl groups may be neutralired by various baaea.

Methods of Production Mte of a disuryl and monoslkyl phosphate are easily ob-

The hydrogen of the unrescted hydroxyl group may be rephed by various metals, particularly those of the alkali and alkalin4esrth groups, ammonia, or aminerr.

AB shown by the above equations,the product of the reaction of an alcohol and phosphorus p t o x i d e is a mixtm of the primary and secondary eaters; the proportion of primary to secondary ester will depend primarily upon the amount of water preaent or formed during the reaction. With anhydrous alcohol the resotion proceeds according to Equation 5 although with higher diphatic alcohols more of the m o n d y l ester will he formed. ¶tion of the alkyl eaters can be effeoted by the merent solubilities of their barium or calcium d t a (6,14). The monoalkyl calcium and barium phosphate ara only slightly soluble and can be s e p t e d from the easily soluble dialkyl calcium and barium phosphate of the lower alcohols by filtration. From the standpoint of low cost, the mixture of primary and secondary alkyl eatem mnlting from the reaction of phosphorus pentoxide and alcohols is of greater c0mmeroi.d interest than the pure primsry or pure secondary alkyl eeters. In addition to the amount of water present, the ratio of the reactants will also influence the composition of the product. The molal ratio of alwhol to phosphorus pentoxide can be varied over the range 2: 1to 4: 1 in order to obtain varying propertim. Under such conditions the content of m P 0 , in the eaters will vary from 35-66 per cent and the FtH,PO. from 65-35 per cent. In all the eaters there will he a trsce of phosphorus pentoxide as &PO, and a certain amount BB the alkyl eaters of pyrophosphoric and metaphosphoric aide. The temperatureat which the alcohol and phoephorus p t a i d e are reacted streds the speed of the reaction but not the composition of the product. The rate of addition of the resctsnta does not strect the wmposition of the product and is governed by the ability of the v d to U p a t e the heat of reaction.

Properties of Acid &tens UnWre the neutral alkyl phosphate, the acid esters have limited usefulness becam of instsbiliy to heat, readJr hydrolyain, and poor c o r d o n charaderisties. To determine the stability of the ethyl eaters of phosphoric acid to hydmlynis, a solution of mixed diethyl and monoethyl hydrogen p h w phatea was diluted to a 6 per cent solution and allowed to Btand at mom temperatnre. From Table I it is apparent tbat about 6 per cent of the esters were hydrolysed to phosphoric acid after the &pee of 89 days and that there WBB a gradual conversion of diethyl to monoethyl eater. T

The instability to heat of the mixed mono- and diethyl eaters was shown by boiling under a vacuum of 8 mm. At first alcohol W e d over. At 150" C. the eaters began to boil vigorously and a condensate was obtained which amounted to 15 per cent of the eaters used. At 200' C. dewmpition started with evolution of ethylene. The condensate was nearly neutral and soluble in water, and had a boiling point of 208" C. This identified the distillate 88 triethyl phosphate. The reaidue from the diswlseion wnsiated of pyrophosphoric and metaphosphoric acid esters.

Properties of Alkyl Phosphates

Interesting products are obtained by the neutralisation of mixed mono- and M y 1 phosphoric acids by both organic and inorganic bases. The outatandw property of most of

these alkyl phosphate is their high solubility in water. Thwe points, good humectant water solutions exbibit low propertiea, high conductivity, and good &ability. Furthermore they are not particularly corrosive. S o ~ m m .Many of the akyl p h w Dbatea are readilv soluble in water. 88 shown k Table 11. 1; determining th& valuea, concentrated wlutiona were prepared either by concentrating aqueous solutiona under vacuum until crystals appesFed on cooling or by adding water to the exce89 of the d i d d t a . After the solution and the crystsls had bean prmitted to stsnd several days, the amount of solids in the solution wan determined. It was diffiout to obtain 8ccmt.e values on account of the propensity of the compounds to form either gda or supereatwated solutions.

The properties of the mixed alkyl phosphates are determined ,by the properties of the monoalkyl phosphates and dialkyl pbospbntes present in the mixture. Table I1 shows that dimethyl and diethyl phosphates, whether neutrdkd by sodium or potassium, exbibit high solubility in water.,- On the other hand, monoethyl or monomethyl phosphate8,wiU have d8erent properties when neutralized by sodium or potassium. Thus, momthyl dipotsmium phosphate has the high water solubility of the diethyI phosphutee, and ita nque ou8 solutions are fsirly fluid. Monoethyl disodium phosphate exhibita greatly diminisbed dubility in wnter, and ita q u e OUB solutions show i n m d viscosity.

high viscosity can be obtained by neutralisation of the monoakyleetsr wntent of the mixed eatera by both d u m and potsmium. By this procedure a monoethyl sodium potsssium phosphate, for exnmple, can be formed with high sohbfity and high viscosity.

potsasium phosphate and particularly amyl sodium potassium p h o s p h a w r e sati8fdmy in this respect. The primary iniluence of inorganic phosphates on color yield 8eem8 to be a coagulating efiect wbich induces a change in the particle size of the insoluble vat dyeatutr. Obviously, if the dyetuff is aggregated by the presence of any chemical, the rate of reduction is dower because of less particle surface being svailshle for the reduction resction. The inorganic phosphates aa e.xempIi6ed by dipotaasiUm phosphate are bad offendersin this direction. The alkyl phosphates, pnrticuM y again the amyl sodiumptsasium type, seem in no way to alter adversely the particle size of the vat pigments and are aa good in this respect aa g l p r o l . Mimcopic examination of a printed fabric before, during, and after aging, disclased further information in regard to the action of various humectants on color yield. It appeara evident that both glycerol and amyl sodium potansium phosphate become fluid enough at aging temperatures to permit good penetration of the paate and therefore of t h e print color, but under the cold oxidising conditions they are viscoiis enough to be slowly soluble and thedore permit full oxidation of the reduced color before the paate is removed from the cloth. Diptsssium phosphate and even ethyl sodium potassium phosphate, on the other band, although perhaps fluid enough at aging temperatures, diesolve rapidly in the cold oxidizing solution so that poor color yields result. ~ p ~ ~ p n Interest r o . in the heproofing of textilea and paper is perennial. The literature on this subject is extensive and complete. Ethyl ammonium phosphate is a good h e p m o h n g agent. It p~laesses one distinct advantage over inorganic phosphates such aa diammonium phosphate in that it ramaine liquid at lower relative humidities than does the inorganic type. This means that a piece of cloth h p m o f e d with ethyl ammonium phosphate is softer in fed. There are a ndmber of theories in respect to the action of a h p m o 6 n g agent. However, it would aeem that n w l y dl inorganic h e p m o f i n g chemiosla are solids which, upon heating, either melt readily or decompose into compounds which do melt d y . The pceeence of the molten solid in the fnbric prevents the h e fromspreading. If a mallsample of a solution of diammonium phosphate is put into a crucible and heated with a b e , the end pmduct is a molten liquid, undoubtedly a phosphoric acid. Ethyl

ammonium phosphate behavea in a similar manner. Since the flamepmfing ability of an &yl phosphate depends on the phosphoric acid formed after thermal breakdown, the alkyl ammonium phosphate containing the maximum amount of P,Os should be superior. The &yI phosphates derived from the lower aliphatic alcohols, methyl and ethyl, have higher PI0s contents than those derived from alcohols of a bigher number of carbon atom at the same degree of egteriEcation. Ethyl mmonium phosphate, for example, cont9ius 53.5 per cent Pros aa against 42 per cent for the c o m p n d i n g amyl type. The higher alcohol derivatives are at a further disadvantage because of their higher arbon content. I
