Reaction Steps

P-CARBOXYPHENYL-PHENYLPHOSPHINIC ACID IS ALREADY KNOWN AND HAS BEEN PREPARED BY L. D. Quinn et al. with unsatisfactory yields (L. D. Quinn et al., J. org. Chem. 27, 4120 (1962): ##STR2## In this process, the reaction product of phenyldichlorophosphine and p-cyanophenyl-diazonium-tetrafluoroborate has to be subjected to a reduction with aluminum in order to obtain the p-cyanophenyl-phenylchlorophosphine. The yield is 47 % of the theoretical yield. This process can be carried out only with difficulty on a large scale, and the formation of large amounts of fluorine containing waste secondary products creates the problem of the pollution-free destruction thereof.
