Greener Synthesis Of Chlorophosphazenes, Andrew Mcgee
Greener Synthesis Of Chlorophosphazenes, Andrew Mcgee
Williams Honors College, Honors Research Projects
This project will attempt to synthesize chlorophosphazene molecules in the absence of solvents by using mechanochemical techniques in order to create a more environmentally friendly synthesis route. In this pursuit, various parameters will be changed including the milling ball to reagent ratios, the molar ratios of the reactants, and the addition of different catalysts. The products of each reaction will be characterized in order to determine success. This work builds upon existing efforts to utilize mechanochemical techniques in main group chemistry. The output of this project will be a report in ACS style and a poster to be presented for …
