Iv. Alabugin et Vk. Brel, THE PHOSPHORUS-CONTAINING ALLENES - THE S TRUCTURE AND REACTIONS WITHELECTROPHILIC REAGENTS, Uspehi himii, 66(3), 1997, pp. 225-245
The data concerning the structure of phosphorus-containing allenes and
their reactions with electrophilic reagents are reviewed for the firs
t time. It is shown that the influence of intramolecular interactions
on the reactivity of the unsaturated centres changes the selectivity o
f reactions of phosphorus-containing allenes with electrophilic reagen
ts. Depending on the nature of the reagent and the structure of the al
lene, various schemes of interaction can be accomplished.
