Abstract

A new general route for preparing enantiomerically pure P-stereogenic phosphine oxides has been developed by exploiting the Staudinger reaction between racemic tertiary phosphines and an enantiomerically pure organoazide. The resulting phosphinimines are easily resolved by either crystallization or flash chromatography and serve as synthetic intermediates toward enantiomerically pure phosphine oxides.
