Abstract

The variable mechanism for substitution of P-stereogenic phosphoryl chloride with alkynyl metallic reagents, which depends on temperature, stoichiometry of starting materials, and the structure of the nucleophilic reagent, is assumed as either SN2-like or Berry pseudorotation of pentacoordinated phosphorus intermediates, affording inversion and retention products, respectively. The formation of the inversion product can be controlled to occur predominantly to afford (RP)-alkynylphosphinates.
