Direct Functionalization of White Phosphorus (P4) with Diaryl Disulfides and Aryl Thianthrenium Salts via Photoactivation of an Electron Donor-Acceptor Complex.

We report a novel strategy for the efficient direct functionalization of white phosphorus (P4) to synthesize organophosphorus compounds through a visible-light-induced electron donor-acceptor (EDA) complex-mediated reaction, which avoids the traditio…
