Abstract

A novel base-promoted O-deprotonation/alkylation reaction of P(O)-OH compounds with alkyl halides has been developed. The protocol is practical, representing a simple way to produce a broad spectrum of functionalized phosphinates, phosphonates, and phosphates from basic starting materials with good to excellent yields. A plausible mechanism was proposed for this reaction.
