“…200 Phosphine reacts with trifluoromethanesulfenyl chloride at 795 8C to give, depending on the ratio of the reactants, S,S,Stris(trifluoromethyl) trithiophosphite or S,S-bis(trifluoromethyl) phosphonodithioite in 96% and 72% yields, respectively. 3,202 In recent years, studies have been published dealing with oxidative dehydrocondensation of phosphine with alcohols, 140,203,204 primary 205 and secondary 140 amines and pyridine; 206 these reactions occur in the presence of copper and platinum compounds and give trialkyl phosphites, 140 trialkyl phosphates, 140,203,204 phosphorous triamides, 205 alkylimidophosphoric triamides 140 and tris(2-pyridyl)phosphine, 206 respectively. Unfortunately, these publications 140, 203 ± 206 barely give any experimental details and, what is more important, they present no data confirming the structures of the compounds synthesised.…”
