Diethyl chlorophosphite acts as a versatile phosphorylating agent for ester and lactone enolates, amines and alkenols. It is used in the synthesis of organophosphates and are considered anticholinesterase agents through observation in studies.

This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand. The original Alfa Aesar product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.

Applications

  3. Reacts readily with nucleophiles, e.g. amines, alcohols or organometallic species, with the introduction of a phosphorus substituent. The phosphorylation of OH groups has been brought about by treatment with the reagent followed by oxidation of the P(III) product to P(V) with, e.g. iodine: Synth. Commun., 12, 821 (1982); Synthesis, 572 (1986). The chlorophosphite has the advantage of greater reactivity over one-step phosphorylation reagents, e.g. Diphenyl phosphorochloridate, A13546.

  5. In the presence of N-ethyldiisopropylamine, reduces both aryl and alkyl nitro compounds to amines: J. Org. Chem., 63, 393 (1998). The reagent also effects dehydration of aldoximes to nitriles, deoxygenation of N-oxides and sulfoxides, and conversion of epoxides to chlorohydrins can also be effected: J. Org. Chem., 67, 711 (2002).
