Octachlorocyclotetraphosphazene (1) was reacted with butylamines [n-butyl, i-butyl, sec-butyl, and t-butyl] in a 1:0.8 mol ratio in THF to obtain cyclotetraphosphazenes bearing a P-NH group, N4P4Cl7(NHR) [R = n-butyl (2a), i-butyl (2b), sec-butyl (2c), t-butyl (2d)](2a-d). The cyclotetraphosphazene derivatives 2a, 2b, and 2c were treated with sodium hydride giving rise to a new type of cyclophosphazene compounds (P8N8 ring) consisting of three fused tetramer rings (3a-c). Whereas reaction of sodium hydride with the t-butylaminocyclophosphazene derivative (2d) gave a P-O-P bridged compound (4) presumably as a result of hydrolysis reaction associated with moisture in the solvent. It is likely that the 16-membered cyclooctaphosphazene derivatives (3a-c) are formed by a proton abstraction/chloride ion elimination, intramolecular nucleophilic attack, ring opening and intermolecular condensation processes, respectively.
