Abstract

The direct sulfonation of arylphosphanes with H2SO4/SO3/boric acid offers numerous advantages, the most significant being that P oxidation is largely avoided. In addition, selective sulfonation is possible. The products, for example 1, are water‐soluble and interesting with respect to two‐phase catalysis. Ar = C6H4‐m‐SO3Na. (Figure Presented.)
