Nov 29, 2016 · However, “phosphoryl” is retained in derived terms such as the names of enzymes (e.g., phosphorylase) or of processes (e.g., phosphorylation). Table I (I won't reproduce it for technical reasons), lists many examples of (1) phosphate names, (2) O -phospho/phospho names, (3) systematic names (the first two types marked as recommended for ...

Dec 12, 2021 · There is no question that the difference is a phosphoryl group. Not a phosphate group. I’ll use the general term phosphus compound to refer to something that may be a phosphate group and may be a phosphoryl group.

Feb 7, 2019 · $\\ce {POCl3}$ is a reagent well-known for enacting various functions in organic synthesis. For example, together with pyridine, it is able to dehydrate alcohols to give alkenes. Also, reacting it w...

Mar 15, 2017 · This reaction was part of an organic scheme I was doing: I thought that $\\ce{POCl3}$ just converts the OH group into Cl, but looking at the chemical formula for A, I noticed that A has an extra ca...

Oct 21, 2019 · Well actually @Waylander and @Nilay Ghosh are both correct in a way. To convert carboxylic acids into acyl chloride, $\ce{PCl5}$ is often used as a chlorinating agent , which yields an acyl chloride and $\ce{POCl3}$ (and $\ce{HCl}$) as a by-product.

May 21, 2024 · Phosphorus has the lowest ionisation energy, and thus, it should be in the centre. When constructing Lewis structures, the atom with the lowest ionisation energy must be in the middle since it can form the most bonds with other elements, as a lower ionisation energy allows it to form bonds (gain or lose electrons) more readily.

Mar 29, 2018 · $\begingroup$ It is probably not such a complicated multistep reaction; initial formation of a chlorophosphate forms a rather weak C-O bond and strong P-O bond resulting in a fast transfer of the second Cl- and formation of the P=O bond.

Aug 1, 2020 · A plausible mechamism of this reaction is discussed in a paper by Xiao et. al 1 where they tried to react benzoic acid with $\ce{PCl3}$ to get acyl chloride.

I'm looking for an explanation of the bonding in the phosphate (PO43−) ion: (Image courtesy of Wikipedia) Phosphorus (15P) - being the fifteenth element - has fifteen electrons, five valence elec...

Nov 5, 2016 · In the photosynthetic dark reaction there are two types of reactions: light-dependent and light-independent. In the light-independent reactions during reduction 3-phosphoglycerate is converted to
