Abstract
Benzylation of cis-2-hydro-2-oxo-4-methyl-1,3,2-dioxaphorinane in the electrochemical version of the Michaelis-Becker reaction occurs stereo specifically with retention of the stereochemistry of the hydrophospho ryl center and affords stereochemically pure 2-benzyl-2-oxo-4-methyl-1 ,3,2-dioxaphosphorinane (yield 60-70 %). The structure of this compoun d was determined by X-ray diffraction analysis. The mechanism of the p rocess was discussed.
