Notes:
p-Styryldiphenylphosphine was grafted onto polypropylene by γ-radiation. However, olefinic phosphines in general do not readily undergo such grafting. Among the many other olefinic phosphines examined only 1-(4-diphenylphosphinophenyl)-prop-1-ene and vinyldiphenylphosphine were grafted successfully and both had low grafting yields. The optimum conditions for grafting involve low dose rates and high total doses of γ-radiation in dimethylsulfoxide as solvent. This grafting is sensitive to impurities and inhomogeneity in the product readily results, especially at high grafting yields. Oxygen must be rigorously excluded if oxidation of grafted phosphorus(III) to phosphorus (V) is to be avoided. Phosphine oxides can be reduced to phosphines when grafted to the polymer with trichlorosilane. Mass spectrometry has shown that more than one olefinic phosphine binds to a single site in the polymer. Solid-state, high-resolution 31P-NMR is a valuable technique for characterizing the grafted polymer. The preparation and characterization of the following hitherto unreported phosphines is described: In addition, the precursor halides none of which has been reported, were prepared and characterized.
