Abstract

Abstract Our recent results in the field of microwave (MW)-assisted organophosphorus syntheses, especially regarding esterifications, condensations, substitutions and additions are surveyed. Beside making organic chemical reactions more efficient, it was possible to perform transformations that are reluctant on conventional heating. Another option is to substitute catalysts, or to simplify catalyst systems under MW conditions. It is also the purpose of this paper to elucidate the scope and limitations of the MW tool, to interpret the MW effects, and to model the distribution of the local overheatings and their beneficial effect. All these considerations are possible on the basis of the enthalpy of activations determined by us utilizing the Arrhenius equation and the pseudo first order kinetic equation.
