Abstract
Azobisisobutyronitrile-initiated free radical reaction of dialkyl phosphites with diaryl diselenides afforded arylselenophosphates in high yields. Arylthiophosphates and aryltellurophosphates can also be synthesized by similar reaction of diaryl disulfides and diaryl ditellurides with dialkyl phosphites.
