Notes:
Electric discharge reactions in the systems PH3 + H2O, PH3 + H2O + NH3 and PH3 + H2O + NH3 + CH4 have been studied.In the system PH3 + H2O, they produce polyphosphines (insoluble in water) and hypophosphorous, phosphorous and orthophosphoric acids.In the system PH3 + H2O + NH3, besides the above products, hypophosphate, pyrophosphate, polyphosphates and possibly polyhyphosphates are also present.In the system PH3 + H2O + NH3 + CH4, besides all the above inorganic P compounds, organic phosphorus derivatives such as aminoalkyl phosphates and aminoalkanephosphonates are also formed, as well as other non-phosphorus containing organic products (amino acids, ethanolamine, etc.). The presence of phosphine (or its transformation products), seems to promote condensation reactions in this system since the ratio of amino acids found after hydrolysis (in 6N HCl) to amino acids found before hydrolysis is greater in this system. than in the system (CH4+ H2O+ NH3)iiot containing phosphine.
