Oxidation-reduction of bis(o-formylphenyl)phenylphosphine by water

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

Bis(o-formylphenyl)phenylphosphine (1) undergoes acid catalysed hydration yielding a phosphine oxide with concomitant reduction of one formyl group; mechanistic studies suggest the importance of phosphorane intermediates in this reaction.
