Abstract:This review is devoted to the theoretic and synthetic aspects of asymmetric electrophilic substitution reactions at the stereogenic phosphorus center. The stereochemistry and mechanisms of electrophilic reactions are discussed-the substitution, addition and addition-elimination of many important reactions. The reactions of bimolecular electrophilic substitution S E 2(P) proceed stereospecifically with the retention of absolute configuration at the phosphorus center, in contrast to the reactions of bimolecular … Show more
