Abstract

A microwave-assisted hydrophosphinylation of unactivated alkenes with phosphinic acid and its derivatives under metal- and initiator-free conditions is operationally simple and seems to proceed via a radical mechanism. Good isolated yields were obtained using a reasonable excess of the appropriate reagent.
