CAS 12164-97-5
:Phosphorus oxide (PO2)
Description:
Phosphorus oxide, specifically the compound with the formula PO2, is a chemical substance that consists of phosphorus and oxygen. It is characterized by its molecular structure, which features phosphorus in a +3 oxidation state. This compound is typically a white or yellowish solid and is known for its reactivity, particularly with water, where it can hydrolyze to form phosphorous acid. PO2 is less commonly encountered than other phosphorus oxides, such as phosphorus pentoxide (P2O5) or phosphorus trioxide (P2O3). Its properties include being a potential precursor in the synthesis of various phosphorus-containing compounds and its role in certain chemical reactions involving phosphorus. The compound is also of interest in the study of phosphorus chemistry due to its unique bonding and structural characteristics. Safety precautions should be taken when handling phosphorus oxides, as they can be hazardous and may pose risks to health and the environment.
