New methods of synthesis of boron,germanium, and tin derivatives of pentavalent phosphorus thioacids

The reactions of S‐trimethylsilyl esters of S‐propyl‐4‐methoxyphenyltrithiophosphonic, bis(dialkylamido)dithiophosphoric, and S‐ethyl‐diethylamidotrithiophosphoric acids with trialkyl borates, triorganylbromogermanes, trimethyl(isobutylthio)germane, and trialkylchlorostannanes were studied. On the basis of these studies, new methods of synthesizing S‐boron, S‐germyl, and S‐stannyl derivatives of pentavalent phosphorus thioacids were developed. S‐Diethylaminomethyl O‐isopropyl‐4‐ethoxyphenyldithiophosphonate was obtained by the reaction of the diisopropylboron derivative of the corresponding dithiophosphonic acid with the aminal 6 . © 2002 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
