Abstract

No thorough study of the preparation of phosphites containing a bridged structure, I, has been reported. Recently Verkade and Reynolds2 prepared a bicyclic phosphite (I, R= CHI) in 40% yield by treating trimethylolethane with phosphorus trichloride under conditions of high dilution and by using pyridine as an acid-binding agent. Barnes and Hoffman* have prepared the same phosphite in 50-5570 yield by heating the triol and phosphorus ...
