Abstract

Abstract: α-Ketophosphonates are prepared from 2-alkyl-2-phosphonyl-1, 3-dithianes. Keywords: α-ketophosphonates, hydrolysis, 1, 3-dithiane, phosphorus, alkylations α- Ketophosphonates are one of the most interesting classes of organophosphorus compounds with many useful synthetic applications. 1 There are, however, only two general methods for the preparation of α-ketophosphonates in the literature. The first method is the ...
