The crystal structure of the title compound, C30H25ClN3O5P3, shows that the direct bonding between P and Cl does not modify the structural parameters in the vicinity of this P atom. It also confirms the structural difference between the two P atoms which are each bonded to two phenoxy groups, observed in the 31P NMR spectrum. The crystal packing consists principally of complex stacking interactions.

Hexachlorocyclotriphosphazene (1 g, 1 equivalent) in solution in anhydrous tetrahydrofuran (THF) under nitrogen was stirred with NaH (60% dispersion in mineral oil, 0.63 g, 5.5 equivalents) at 268 K. A solution of phenol (1.49 g, 5.5 equivalents) in THF was added dropwise to maintain the temperature at around 268 K. The mixture was then stirred at room temperature for 24 h. The THF was evaporated and the residue was dissolved in dichloromethane, washed with water and dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate. After removal of the dichloromethane under reduced pressure, the yield reached 86% for (I), and the 31P NMR spectrum indicated the presence of hexaphenoxycyclotriphophazene as a side product. The title compound was crystallized in a desiccator by slow diffusion of pentane in a concentrated solution of (I) in THF. The 31P NMR spectrum was recorded using a Bruker DRX400 and samples were dissolved in CDCl3 to a concentration of 10% w/v.
H atoms were treated as riding, with C—H distances in the range 0.93–0.96 Å and with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C). Please check added text.

Special details top
Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s. planes. |
Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger. |

The title compound, (I), also known as monochloropentaphenoxycyclotriphosphazene, has already been used to synthesize polymer precursors (Dez & De Jaeger, 1996). More recently, it has been used to synthesize a wide range of cyclotriphosphazene derivatives, such as cyclotriphosphazene hydrazides (Chandrasekhar et al., 2003), cyclotriphosphazene with N,N,N',N'-tetramethylguanidine groups (Bloy & Diefenbach, 2000), and cyclotriphosphazene with 2-, 3- and 4-pyridylmethoxy groups (Diefenbach et al., 1999). Its synthesis and NMR data have been described elsewhere (Reuben, 1987; Selvaraj et al., 1991). To date, however, structural data for (I) are not available in the Cambridge Structural Database (CSD, Version 5.24; Allen, 2002). We thus present here the results of the first X-ray crystal structure analysis of (I). \sch
Fig. 1 shows a view of the asymmetric unit of (I), which consists of one molecule. The phosphazene ring is planar, with the maximum deviation from the mean least-squares plane being 0.093 (1) Å for atom P3. A small asymmetry within the bond angles of the phospazene ring is noted (Table 1), as was also observed in the related cyclic (p-halogenophenoxy)phosphazene structures (Allcock et al., 1994). The mean values of the N—P—N and P—N—P angles are 117.87 and 121.54°, respectively. The P—O, P—N, P—Cl and O—C bond lengths are in agreement with the values observed in analogous structures deposited in the CSD (Table 3). It is interesting to note that the occurrence of a Cl atom directly attached to a P atom does not modify the structural parameters in the vicinity of this atom, P1.
The phenyl units lie on both sides of the phospazene ring, three on one side and two on the other, close to which lies the Cl atom. The disposition of the three phenyl side groups on the side opposite to the Cl is such that the plane of phenoxy group C (C521—C526) attached to atom O52 (on P5) is approximately perpendicular to the phosphazene ring, with a dihedral angle of 78.59 (9)°. Phenoxy ring B (C321—C326)attached to atom O32 (on P3) is more tilted towards the phosphazene ring, with a dihedral angle of about 69.52 (9)°, and the third ring (A, C111—C116) attached to atom O11 (on P1) is nearly parallel to the phosphazene ring, with a dihedral angle of 21.6 (2)°. Furthermore, owing to optimization of C—H···π stacking interactions, these three phenyl rings are oriented so that they are approximately mutually perpendicular. Phenyl ring A is oriented perpendicular to phenyl ring B, with a dihedral angle of about 89.6 (1)°, and the distance between atom C116 and the centroid of ring B, CgB, is about 3.71 Å (Table 4). Phenyl ring B is perpendicular to ring C, with a dihedral angle of 82.4 (1)°, and the distance between atom C326 and the centroid of ring C, CgC, is about 4.18 Å (Table 4).
On the same side as the Cl atom, phenyl ring E (C311–316) attached to atom O31 is perpendicular to the phosphazene ring, with a dihedral angle of 85.8 (1)°, whereas phenyl ring D (C511—C516) attached to atom O51 is more tilted towards the phosphazene ring, with a dihedral angle of 45.62 (6)°. The dihedral angle between rings E and D [52.8 (1)°] indicates that these two rings are not in an optimal perpendicular stacking interaction. However, atom C512 is situated at a distance of 3.99 Å from the centroid of ring E, CgE (Table 4).
Surprisingly, the 31P NMR spectrum of (I) shows a doublet of a doublet at 22.33 p.p.m. (JPNP = 81 and 84 Hz), attributed to atoms P3 and P5, and a doublet at 7.03 p.p.m. (JPNP = 83 Hz), attributed to P1, instead of the expected triplet (P3 and P5) and doublet (P1). These results indicate that P3 and P5 are not strictly equivalent. A significant difference between these two P atoms is observed in the crystal structure and concerns the position of the phenoxy groups. This difference could explain the non-equivalence observed for P3 and P5 in the NMR spectrum.
In the crystal packing of (I), phenyl rings from neighbouring molecules complete the intramolecular stacking interactions between the phenoxy units on both sides of the phosphazene ring (Fig. 2). C—H···π interactions are observed between rings E and B and between rings E and D. These phenyl rings make dihedral angles of 58.5 (1) and 70.9 (1)°, respectively. For the former interaction, atom C325 is at a distance of 3.90 Å from CgE, and for the latter, atom C314 is at a distance of 3.85 Å from the centroid of ring D, CgD (Table 4). At the same time, a C—H group from a symmetry-related molecule is situated close to each N atom of the phosphazene ring, at distances ranging from 3.35 to 3.67 Å (Table 2). According to the geometric parameters, the C523—H523···N6 interaction is weak, and it may be difficult to assert the occurrence of a real C—H···N interaction.
