Abstract
This review presents the characteristic reactions of the alkoxy group of the acid diesters of phosphorous acid (RO)2 P(O)H: transesterification—with the phosphorus atom as the reaction center; alkylation—with the α-carbon atom as the reaction center; dealkylation—with the α-carbon atom as the reaction center. The possibilities of these reactions in the synthesis of end products with various structures and compositions are demonstrated. The perspectives for the practical application of these esters of phosphorous acid are discussed.
