Abstract

Copper-catalyzed stereospecific oxidative dehydrocouplings of P (O)–H bonds with amines under air took place efficiently at room temperature to afford the corresponding amidophosphorus compounds in high yields. Mechanistic studies showed that this dehydrocoupling reaction proceeded stereospecifically with inversion of stereochemistry at phosphorus.
