The mechanism of the amidoalkylation of trivalent phosphorus compounds in acetic acid has been reinvestigated.Evidence is presented that 1-(acylamino)alkyl acetates 5 and not N,N'-alkylidenebisamides 2 are the intermediates in this reaction.Supporting literature analogies are discussed.This paper also describes a convenient procedure for the preparation of crude (acylamino)alkyl alkanoates 5, which are excellent amidoalkylating agents.The usefulness of these reagents is demonstrated by a simple two-step "one pot" synthesis of 1-aminoalkylphosphinic acids 1.
