BY GENE WISE^ AND HERMAN P. LANKELMA s-Aliphatic amines, RINH, react with phosphorus pentasulfide to give thiophosphoric amides. Depending upon reaction conditions a monamide, RsN. PS (SH) r, a mixed diamide, R2N) PS* SH, or a triamide (RNH) aPS is obtained. By further RNH reaction with the amine, the monamide is easily converted to the diamide and the latter to the triamide. Amides of the above types were ...
