3-Phenyl-2-substituted-indoles are formed in high yields in the reaction of Ph2C=C(R)NO2 (R = H, Me, Ph) with (EtO)3P at 150 deg C while reaction with (EtO)2PO(1-)/(Et2O)P(O)H at room temperature forms the aziridines 1 with R = H, Me, Ph. 2,2-Diphenyl-3-substituted-2H-azirines formed by deoxygenation of the Michael-type aducts are postulated as intermediates.Reactions of PhCH=C(R)NO2 (R = H, Me, Ph) with (EtO)3P at 150 deg C or (EtO)2PO(1-)/(EtO)2P(O)H at room temperature give products resulting from the addition of the phosphorus nucleophile at the benzylidene carbonatom.Evidence for the formation of cyclic structures with pentacoordinated phosphorus atoms is presented for the reaction of Ph2C=C(Me)NO2 with (EtO)2PO(1-)/(EtO)2P(O)H and for PhCH=C(R)NO2 (R = H, Me, Ph) with (EtO)3P.The Michael-type adducts PhCHCH(R)NO2 (R = Me, Ph) undergo reaction upon treatment with aqueous base at 80-100 deg C followed by acidification to yield the 3-(diethoxyphosphinyl)-2-R-N-hydroxyindoles. 4-(Diethoxyphosphinyl)-3-R-4H-1,2-benzoxazines (13, R = Me, Ph) are formed by reaction with 85percent H2SO4 of the adducts of PhCH=C(R)NO2 with (EtO)2PO(1-) (R = Me) or (EtO)3P (R = Ph).

Reaction of excess RS- (R=Ph, t-Bu) with Ph2C=C(SPh)NO2 in Me2SO form Ph2C=CHSR via conversion of the initial Michael-type adducts into Ph2C(SR)CH=NO2- and Ph2C=CHNO2.In a similar fashion, reaction of (EtO)2PO- with Ph2C=C(SPh)NO2 forms initially mainly PhSP(O)(OEt)2 and Ph2CCH=NO2-, which upon acidic workup will yield the nitroalkane or the Nef reaction product, Ph2CCHO.The reaction of (EtO)2PO- with Ph2C=C(SPh)NO2 also produces Ph2CCN via a Perkow-type reaction of the Michael adduct to yield Ph2CCH=N(O)OP(O)(OEt)2 as an intermediate.The nitrile is also formed from Ph2CCH(NO2)2 with (EtO)2PO- in (EtO)2P(O)H or Me2SO at 30 deg C and in >95percent yield by the reaction of (EtO)3P with Ph2CCH(NO2)2 at 150 deg C.Reaction of Ph2C=CHNO2 or Ph2CCH2NO2 with excess (EtO)PO- in Me2SO or (EtO)2P(O)H forms 3-(diethoxyphosphinyl)-2,2-diphenylaziridine by a process postulated to involve Ph2C=CHN(O-)OP(O)(OEt)2, Ph2C=CHNOP(O)(OEt)2-, and 2,2-diphenyl-2H-azirine.Similarly, Ph2C=C(SBu-t)NO2 and (EtO)2PO- give 3-(tert-butylthio)-2,2-diphenyl-2H-azirine in Me2SO or 2-(tert-butylthio)-3-phenylindole in (EtO)2P(O)H solution.Deoxygenation of Ph2C=C(X)NO2 to form the 2-X-3-phenylindoles occurs in high yield at 150 deg C in (EtO)3P with X=H, PhS, or t-BuS while 2-nitrro-3-phenylindole is formed from Ph2C=C(NO2)2 in (EtO)2P(O)H at 150 deg C.
