Synthesis of the new adducts of imines and enamines with PH acids and their derivatives

Nucleophilic or radical addition of esters of trivalent organophosphorus acids with PH fragments to various imines and enamines is proposed as convenient methods for the synthesis of new substituted aminomethyl organophosphorus compounds with three‐, four‐, and five‐coordinated phosphorus. Also the new functionalized derivatives of these compounds with acyl and methanesulfonyl moieties are synthesized, and some properties of the obtained compounds are presented. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
