Popis: 1. Trialkyl phosphites react with chloral at low temperatures (from −40 to −70°C) in a 1∶2 ratio to form 1,4,2-dioxaphospholanes, which are converted under the action of HCl into dialkyl α- (1-hydroxy-2,2,2-trichloroethoxy)-β,β,β-trichloroethylphosphonates. 2. The kinetics of the reaction of triethyl phosphite with chloral have been studied by high-speed Raman spectroscopy, and it has been shown that the formation of 2,2,2-triethoxy-3,5-bis(trichloromethyl)-1,4,2-dioxaphospholane is observed at room temperature and that the latter compound slowly decomposes into diethyl β,β-dichlorovinyl phosphate and ethyl chloride with the accompanying splitting off of chloral. 3. It has been postulated that the reaction of trialkyl phosphites with chloral begins with the attack of the phosphite phosphorus atom on the carbonyl carbon atom of chloral. The first step in the process is rapid and is not the rate-determining step of the reaction.
