Abstract

A metal-free direct aerobic oxyphosphorylation of alkenes with H-phosphine oxides has been developed utilizing visible light photoredox catalysis. A variety of β-ketophosphine oxides have been obtained in good yields from simple olefins under air with inexpensive rhodamine B as the non-metallic photocatalyst. This method provides a mild, green, and practical synthetic approach to valuable β-ketophosphine oxides.
