Microwave irradiation technique for synthesis of dialkyl dithiophosphoric acids

Microwave heating technique was applied to the preparation of dialkyl dithiophosphoric acids from the reaction of alcohol with phosphorus pentasulphide. A microwave oven (CEM-MDS 2000) was utilized to determine the preparation conditions for the best yield of dialkyl dithiophosphoric acids under atmospheric pressure at various times and power. Six different (C 4 -C 9 ) chain-length of dialkyl dithiophosphoric acids were studied. All experiments were performed in an open Teflon (poly-tetrafluoroethylene) vessel. The results obtained showed that the reaction of dialkyl dithiophosphoric acids can be achieved more rapidly using microwave heating than using conventional procedures.

Spectroscopic and Thermogravimetric Investigation of Cd(II) Dinonyldithiophosphate: Removal of Cadmium from Aqueous Solutions

Dinonyldithiophosphoric acid (HDDTP) was synthesised from the reaction of phosphorus pentasulphide and nonyl alcohol. Dinonyldithiophosphate complex of cadmium [Cd(DDTP)2] was prepared by mixing solutions of Cd(II) with HDDTP in ethanol at room temperature. The acid and its complex were characterised by elemental analysis and spectroscopy. The thermal behaviour of Cd(DNDTP)2 was investigated by thermogravimetric analysis. Removal of Cd(II) from aqueous media by HDDTP solution was also studied. The optimum conditions for removal of Cd(II) were investigated for effects of solvent, pH, contact time, concentration, and inorganic anions. Cd(II) was quantitatively removed from aqueous solutions at the pH range of , under the conditions that the stoichiometric ratio of HDDTP/Cd(II) ≥2/1. It can be stated that contact of the Cd(II) with HDDTP was sufficient for quantitative removing of cadmium from acidic aqueous solutions.
