Diethyl hydroxy(2-methylphenyl)methyl]phos-
phonate (IIc). Into a steel pressure reactor with a glass
lining equipped with a magnetic stirrer and flushed with
dry argon was charged 0.056 g (0.2 mmol) of α-oxo-
phosphonate Ic in 4 ml of anhydrous methanol and
0.011 g (5 mol%) of 10%Pd/C. The hydrogen pressure
was raised to 10 at, and the reaction mixture was stirred
at room temperature for 6 h. The catalyst was filtered
off through a thin bed of silica gel, and the solvent was
distilled off on a rotary evaporator. The residue was
dissolved in CDCl3and subjected to spectral analyses.
Yield according to the data of 31P{H} NMR spectrum
was 100%. 1H NMR spectrum (CDCl3), δ, ppm: 1.20 t

Diethyl [hydroxy(phenyl)methyl]phosphonate
(IIa) [4, 5, 13, 30]. Into a flask equipped with a magnetic
stirrer, a reflux condenser with a Wuertz adapter, a long
capillary going through the condenser to the bottom of
the flask, and a bubbler was charged 0.05 g (0.2 mmol)
of compound Ia in 4 ml of anhydrous methanol. The
device was filled with argon through the capillary, and
0.01 g (5 mol%) of 10%Pd/C was charged thereto. The
argon flow was stopped, and through the same capillary
the device was flushed with hydrogen. The reaction
mixture was heated at reflux for 1 h under a constant
flow of hydrogen while stirring, then it was cooled, the
catalyst was filtered off through a thin bed of silica gel,
and the solvent was distilled off on a rotary evaporator.
The residue was dissolved in CD3OD and subjected to
spectral analyses. Yield according to the data of 31P{H}
NMR spectrum was 96%. 1H NMR spectrum (CD3OD),
