Thiophosphoryl bromide is an inorganic compound with the formula PSBr3.[1]

Preparation

[edit]

Thiophosphoryl bromide can be prepared by heating phosphorus tribromide with phosphorus pentasulfide, or with elemental sulfur in an inert atmosphere at 130 °C.[4]

Thiophosphoryl bromide is one product of the bromination of P4S7 in cold carbon disulfide:[1]

3 P4S7 + 12 Br2 → 2 PBr3 + 2 PSBr3 + 2 P2S6Br2 + 2 P2S5Br4

Structure and properties

[edit]

Thiophosphoryl bromide has tetrahedral molecular geometry and C3v molecular symmetry. According to gas electron diffraction, the phosphorus–sulfur bond length is 1.895 Å and the phosphorus–bromine bond length is 2.193 Å, while the S=P−Br bond angle is 116.2° and the Br−P−Br bond angle is 101.9°.[5]

Thiophosphoryl bromide is soluble in carbon disulfide, chloroform and diethyl ether.[4]

Reactions

[edit]

Like other phosphoryl and thiophosphoryl halides,[1] thiophosphoryl bromide readily hydrolyses, undergoes nucleophilic substitution and forms adducts with Lewis acids.[6] Reaction with lithium iodide generates the mixed thiophosphoryl halides PSBr2I and PSBrI2 but not thiophosphoryl iodide, PSI3.[7] Thiophosphoryl bromide is of use in organic synthesis for reducing sulfoxides to thioethers,[8] and sulfines to thioketones.[9]
