Abstract

Ten phospholes, bearing either methyl, benzyl, or phenethyl substituents on phosphorus and methyl or carbomethoxy on carbon, have been synthesized by dehydrohalogenation of 3, 4-dibromophospholanes or of l-halophospholenium halides. The two esters prepared are the first phospholes with a reactive functional group. Significant differences were noted in the rates of reaction of phospholes to quaternization with alkyl halides; the fastest reacting ...
