✦ Synopsis
Abstract
Optically active 1‐alkoxy‐ and 1‐amino‐3‐phospholene oxides were synthesized by the reaction of the corresponding 1‐chloro‐3‐phospholene oxides with (1__R__,2__S__,5__R__)‐(–)menthol and (S)‐(–)‐α‐phenylethylamine. The 3‐methyl‐3‐phospholene oxides were subjected to dichlorocyclopropanation under liquid–liquid phase transfer catalytic conditions to afford the 3‐phosphabicyclo[3.1.0]hexane 3‐oxides as a mixture of four diastereomers. Thermolysis of the menthyl‐phosphabicyclohexane oxides led to the corresponding 1,2‐dihydrophosphinine oxide as a diastereomeric mixture of two double‐bond isomers. As a result of additional steps, the dichlorocarbene addition reaction of the 1‐menthyl‐3,4‐dimethyl‐3‐phospholene oxide resulted in eventually, the formation of a 4‐dichloromethylene‐1,4‐dihydrophosphinine oxide. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

## Abstract The reduction of dimenthyl ketophosphonates with sodium borohydride involves asymmetric induction at the α‐carbon atom, resulting in a small excess of the (R)‐enantiomer of the α‐hydroxyphosphonate formed. A higher ee purity was achieved if the reduction of chiral dimenthyl ketophosphon
