摘要

Contrary to the generally held view, it is found that the rapid epimerization of (−)-menthyl (RP)-phenylphosphinate under basic conditions is not due to the so far believed inherent stereolability of its corresponding anion but due to a reaction of the hydrogen phosphinate ester with a metal alkoxide. This finding successfully leads to a discovery that, by adding an H-phosphinate to organolithiums or Grignard reagents at a low temperature, the ...
