The reactions with one, two and three equimolar ratios of 2-(2-hydroxyethylamino)-ethanol, in the presence of NaH at 0–10 °C and at room temperature gave the following cyclotriphosphazene derivatives: one mono-spiro, N3P3Cl4[O–(CH2)2–NH–(CH2)2–O] (3, 1:1, r.t.); its isomer mono-ansa (5, 1:1, r.t.); one dispiro, N3P3Cl2[O–(CH2)2–NH–(CH2)2–O]2 (4, 1:1, r.t.); its isomer spiro-ansa (6, 1:2, r.t.); and one single-bridged compound with spiro substituted units, N3P3Cl3[O–(CH2)2–NH–(CH2)2–O]3N3P3Cl3 (7, 1:3, at 0–10 °C); as well as single-, N3P3Cl5[O–(CH2)2–NH–(CH2)2–O]N3P3Cl5 (8, 1:2, r.t.), double-, N3P3Cl4[O–(CH2)2–NH–(CH2)2–O]2N3P3Cl4 (9, 1:2, r.t.), and tri-bridged, N3P3Cl3[O–(CH2)2–NH–(CH2)2–O]3N3P3Cl3 (10, 1:3, at 0–10 °C) derivatives. Triple-bridged derivative is the major product in this system. The structures of the novel-derived compounds were characterized by TLC-MS, FT-IR, elemental analysis, 1H, and 31P NMR spectral.
