Abstract
A new approach to the synthesis of 2-hydroxyaryl-alkenylphosphine oxides and dialkyl (diaryl)-(2-methyl-4-oxopent-2-yl)phosphine oxides was developed that involves an interaction of Grignard reagents with available benzo[e]-1,2-oxaphosphorinines and 1,2-oxaphospholene-2-oxide. This approach allows obtaining target compounds with a high yield. The synthesized phosphine oxides proved to be highly efficient extractants in the micellar extraction of some lanthanides from the nitric acid media.
