Buchler Glossary

Hydrophosphonylation

Hydrophosphonylation refers to any reaction where addition across a double bond generates a phosphonate (RP(O)(OR’)2) group.

Hydrophosphonylation examples catalyzed by cinchona alkaloid derivatives can be found in our free of charge Buchler Chiral Catalyst Search Data Base.
