Abstract Cyclic sulfamidates (prepared from α-amino acids and β-amino alcohols) have been used for the first time for the synthesis of novel β-amino phosphonates (chiral and achiral) by treatment with dialkyl phosphites using sodium hydride. 2-Substituted and 1, 2- disubtituted β-amino phosphonates have efficiently been prepared following this method. The products are formed in high yield (79–84%) within 8–12 h.
