| Abstract: | Nucleophilic addition of trimethylsilyl esters of hypophosphorus acid to trimethylsilyl ester and diethylamide of vinylsulfonic acid is proposed as convenient methods for the synthesis of new 2‐sulfonylethylphosphonites and their derivatives under mild conditions. Also the new functionalized derivatives of these phosphonites, including aminomethyl fragments as well as certain properties of these compounds as important precursors of new organophosphorus‐substituted derivatives of ethanesulfonic acid, are presented. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
