Reactivity of Tris(trimethylsilyl)Phosphite (TMSP): Reactions with Haloacetyl Chlorides

Jazmin Garduno and Luis Vargas. Queensborough Community College, Bayside, NY

TMSP was treated with 2-chloro-2,2-diphenylacetyl chloride and the reaction then hydrolyzed. ARBUZOV and PERKOW types of reactions are expected; the outcome of our reaction will be deduced from IR and NMR spectra.
