Abstract
Mechanochemical change of trisodium isohypophosphate tetrahydrate (P3–O–P5), one of the lower phosphorus oxoacid salts, was investigated by analysis of species of phosphorus oxoanions. On grinding of P3–O-P5–salt, the P–O–P linkages were broken to give phosphonate and pyrophosphate. This shows that the decomposition of P3–O–P5-salt and the recombination of two phosphate radicals produced by grinding, occurred due to grinding.
