A cyclic organic phosphorus compound useful as a stabilizer and a fire retardant for organic substances, particularly, high molecular weight compounds is provided, which compound is expressed by the formula (I): ##STR1## and further a process for producing the above compound (I) is provided, which process comprises reacting a compound expressed by the formula (II): ##STR2## with 1,4-benzoquinone.

Cyclic organic phosphorus compound and process for producing same

Novel phenolic compounds useful as a color developer suitable for satisfying the quality requirements of heat-sensitive recording materials are provided, which compounds are expressed by the general formula ##STR1## wherein R.sub.1 represents an alkyl group or a cycloalkyl group and R.sub.2 represents hydrogen atom or an alkyl group; and also heat-sensitive recording materials usable in a broad application field are provided, which recording materials are provided with a heat-sensitive recording layer composed mainly of a colorless basic dye and the above compounds as a color developer by which the dye forms colors, overlaid on a substrate.

Heat-sensitive recording material

Phenolic compounds and a heat-sensitive recording material containing

In a heat-sensitive recording material incorporating a colorless or pale-colored basic dye and a color acceptor which is reactive with the basic dye to form a color when contacted therewith, the recording material characterized in that at least one compound represented by the formula [I] is contained in a heat-sensitive recording layer ##STR1## wherein X is --O-- or --COO--, R.sub.1 to R.sub.4 are each hydrogen atom, alkyl having 1 to 8 carbon atoms, aryl having 6 to 10 carbon atoms, aralkyl having 7 to 9 carbon atoms, chlorine atom, acetyl, propionyl, methoxy, methylthio, methoxycarbonyl, cyano, nitro or cyclohexenyl, substituents R.sub.1 and/or R.sub.2 or substituents R.sub.3 and R.sub.4 may link together to form aromatic ring(s), n is an integer of 1 to 10.

New phosphorus-containing condensation products are obtained by conducting dehydrocondensation of 10-hydroxymethyl-9, 10-dihydro-9-oxa-10-phosphorphenanthrene-10-oxide compounds with melamine or benzoguanamine. Alternatively, 9, 10-dihydro-9-oxa-10-phosphorphenanthrene-10-oxide compounds with alkoxymethyl melamines or alkoxymethyl benzoguanamines are condensed under heating. These phosphorus-containing condensation products are useful, particularly as a flame retardant for various synthetic resins.
