With styrene and α-methylstyrene as examples red phosphorus and phosphine were shown to react with arylalkenes in a superbasic system (KOH/DMSO), yielding bis(2-phenylethyl)phosphine, bis(2-phenylpropyl)phosphine, bis(2-phenylethyl)phosphine oxide, bis(2-phenylpropyl)phosphine oxide, 2-phenylethylphosphinic and 2-phenylpropylphosphinic acids, and tris(2-phenylethyl)phosphine oxide. Conditions for preparation of secondary phosphines and phosphine oxides were found. Phosphine was generated by treating red phosphorus wuth aqueous potassium or sodium hydroxide.
