Difluorophosphoric Acid
Difluorophosphoric acid is an inorganic compound with the formula HPO2F2. It is a colorless liquid. The acid has limited applications, in part because it is thermally and hydrolytically unstable. It is prepared by hydrolysis of phosphorus oxyfluoride: :POF3 + H2O → HPO2F2 + HF Further hydrolysis gives monofluorophosphoric acid: :HPO2F2 + H2O → H2PO3F + HF Complete hydrolysis gives phosphoric acid Phosphoric acid (orthophosphoric acid, monophosphoric acid or phosphoric(V) acid) is a colorless, odorless phosphorus-containing solid, and inorganic compound with the chemical formula . It is commonly encountered as an 85% aqueous solution, w ...: :H2PO3F + H2O → H3PO4 + HF The salts of difluorophosphoric acid are known as difluorophosphates.

Inorganic Compound
In chemistry, an inorganic compound is typically a chemical compound that lacks carbon–hydrogen bonds, that is, a compound that is not an organic compound. The study of inorganic compounds is a subfield of chemistry known as '' inorganic chemistry''. Inorganic compounds comprise most of the Earth's crust, although the compositions of the deep mantle remain active areas of investigation. Some simple carbon compounds are often considered inorganic. Examples include the allotropes of carbon (graphite, diamond, buckminsterfullerene, etc.), carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, carbides, and the following salts of inorganic anions: carbonates, cyanides, cyanates, and thiocyanates. Many of these are normal parts of mostly organic systems, including organisms; describing a chemical as inorganic does not necessarily mean that it does not occur within living things. History Friedrich Wöhler's conversion of ammonium cyanate into urea in 1828 is often cited as the starting point of modern ...

Hydrolysis
Hydrolysis (; ) is any chemical reaction in which a molecule of water breaks one or more chemical bonds. The term is used broadly for substitution reaction, substitution, elimination reaction, elimination, and solvation reactions in which water is the nucleophile. Biological hydrolysis is the cleavage of biomolecules where a water molecule is consumed to effect the separation of a larger molecule into component parts. When a carbohydrate is broken into its component sugar molecules by hydrolysis (e.g., sucrose being broken down into glucose and fructose), this is recognized as saccharification. Hydrolysis reactions can be the reverse of a condensation reaction in which two molecules join into a larger one and eject a water molecule. Thus hydrolysis adds water to break down, whereas condensation builds up by removing water. Types Usually hydrolysis is a chemical process in which a molecule of water is added to a substance. Sometimes this addition causes both the substance and w ...

Phosphorus Oxyfluoride
Phosphoryl fluoride (commonly called phosphorus oxyfluoride) is a compound with the chemical formula . It is a colorless gas that hydrolyzes rapidly. Synthesis and reactions Phosphorus oxyfluoride is prepared by partial hydrolysis of phosphorus pentafluoride. Phosphorus oxyfluoride is the progenitor of the simple fluorophosphoric acids by hydrolysis. The sequence starts with difluorophosphoric acid: : The next steps give monofluorophosphoric acid and phosphoric acid: : : Phosphoryl fluoride combines with dimethylamine to produce dimethylaminophosphoryl difluoride and difluorophosphate and hexafluorophosphate Hexafluorophosphate is an anion with chemical formula of . It is an octahedral species that imparts no color to its salts. is isoelectronic with sulfur hexafluoride, , and the hexafluorosilicate dianion, , and hexafluoroantimonate . In this an ... ions.

Fluorophosphoric Acid
Fluorophosphoric acid is the inorganic compound with the formula H2PO3F. It is a colorless viscous liquid that solidified to a glass upon cooling. Preparation Fluorophosphoric acid is produced commercially by treating phosphorus pentoxide with hydrogen fluoride. A less pure product can also be prepared by hydrolysis of phosphorus oxyfluoride, a reaction that first produces difluorophosphoric acid: :POF3 + H2O → HPO2F2 + HF The next steps give monofluorophosphoric acid: :HPO2F2 + H2O → H2PO3F + HF Reactions Fluorophosphoric acid is a dibasic acid, with pKas of 5.5 and around 8.5. The conjugate bases are the monofluorophosphate Monofluorophosphate is an anion with the formula PO3F2−, which is a phosphate group with one oxygen atom substituted with a fluoride atom. The charge of the ion is −2. The ion resembles sulfate in size, shape and charge, and can thus form comp ...s, which are hydrolytically robust. References {{inorganic-compound-stub Oxohali ...

Phosphoric Acid
Phosphoric acid (orthophosphoric acid, monophosphoric acid or phosphoric(V) acid) is a colorless, odorless phosphorus-containing solid, and inorganic compound with the chemical formula . It is commonly encountered as an 85% aqueous solution, which is a colourless, odourless, and non- volatile syrupy liquid. It is a major industrial chemical, being a component of many fertilizers. The compound is an acid. Removal of all three ions gives the phosphate ion . Removal of one or two protons gives dihydrogen phosphate ion , and the hydrogen phosphate ion , respectively. Phosphoric acid forms esters, called organophosphates. The name "orthophosphoric acid" can be used to distinguish this specific acid from other "phosphoric acids", such as pyrophosphoric acid. Nevertheless, the term "phosphoric acid" often means this specific compound; and that is the current IUPAC nomenclature. Production Phosphoric acid is produced industrially by one of two routes, wet processes and dry. We ...

Difluorophosphates
Difluorophosphate or difluorodioxophosphate or phosphorodifluoridate is an anion with formula . It has a single negative charge and resembles perchlorate () and monofluorosulfonate (SO3F−) in shape and compounds. These ions are isoelectronic, along with tetrafluoroaluminate, phosphate, orthosilicate, and sulfate. It forms a series of compounds. The ion is toxic to mammals as it causes blockage to iodine uptake in the thyroid. However it is degraded in the body over several hours. Compounds containing difluorophosphate may have it as a simple uninegative ion, it may function as a difluorophosphato ligand where it is covalently bound to one or two metal atoms, or go on to form a networked solid. It may be covalently bound to a non metal or an organic moiety to make an ester or an amide. Formation The ammonium salt of difluorophosphate is formed from treating phosphorus pentoxide with ammonium fluoride. This was how the ion was first made by its discoverer, Willy Lange, in 1929 ...

Oxohalides
In chemistry, molecular oxohalides (oxyhalides) are a group of chemical compounds in which both oxygen and halogen atoms are attached to another chemical element A in a single molecule. They have the general formula , where X = fluorine (F), chlorine (Cl), bromine (Br), and/or iodine (I). The element A may be a main group element, a transition element or an actinide. The term ''oxohalide'', or ''oxyhalide'', may also refer to minerals and other crystalline substances with the same overall chemical formula, but having an ionic structure. Synthesis Oxohalides can be seen as compounds intermediate between oxides and halides. There are three general methods of synthesis: *Partial oxidation of a halide: *:2 PCl3 + O2 -> 2 POCl3 **In this example, the oxidation state increases by two and the electrical charge is unchanged. *Partial halogenation of an oxide: *:2 V2O5 + 6 Cl2 + 3 C -> 4 VOCl3 + 3 CO2 *Oxide replacement: *: rO42- + 2 Cl- + 4 H+ -> CrO2Cl2 + 4 H2O In addition, various o ...

Phosphorus Halides
In chemistry, there are three series of binary phosphorus halides, containing phosphorus in the oxidation states +5, +3 and +2. All compounds have been described, in varying degrees of detail, although serious doubts have been cast on the existence of PI5.I. Tornieporth-Getting & T. Klapötke, ''J. Chem. Soc.'', ''Chem. Commun.'' 1990, 132. Mixed chalcogen halides also exist. Oxidation state +5 (PX5) In the gas phase the phosphorus pentahalides have trigonal bipyramidal molecular geometry as explained by VSEPR theory. Phosphorus pentafluoride is a relatively inert gas, notable as a mild Lewis acid and a fluoride ion acceptor. It is a fluxional molecule in which the axial (ax) and equatorial (eq) fluorine atoms interchange positions by the Berry pseudorotation mechanism. Phosphorus pentachloride, phosphorus pentabromide, and phosphorus heptabromide are ionic in the solid and liquid states; PCl5 is formulated as PCl4+PCl6–, but in contrast, PBr5 is formulated as PBr4+ ...
