Trioctylphosphine oxide (TOPO), C 24 H 51 OP, was recrystallized from ambient evaporation in acetone. TOPO single crystals form with a monoclinic P 2 1 / c structure. Fourier transform IR (FT–IR) spectroscopy captures the characteristic stretching modes from the seven methylene groups, the phosphoryl P=O bond, and the phosphoryl–carbon bond.
