Abstract
The methylester hydrochlorides of the (S)-amino acids L-alanine (la), L-phenylalanine (1b), L-valine (1c) and L-lysine (1d) were converted to the corresponding isothiocyanates 2a-d by thiophosgenation. 2a-d react with secondary phosphines and phosphine oxides to give the thiocarbamoylphosphines 3a-d and P-oxides 4a, b.
