Abstract
Unusual application of ionic liquids as the promoter for selective white phosphorus tetrahedron opening and reagent in the electrochemical reaction was described. New single-stage electrochemical synthesis of esters of phosphoric acids from white phosphorus in the presence of ionic liquid in alcohol medium has been proposed in mild conditions. One hundred percent conversion of P4 to soluble organophosphorus derivatives was observed. Ionic liquid promotes the opening of a tetrahedron of white phosphorus, acting as an electrophilic reaction component, as well as an electrolyte and a reagent. The dialkylimidazole diethylphosphonate with C–P bond, difficult of access by other approaches, was prepared with good yields.
