Phosphorylation of Alkenyl and Aryl C–O Bonds via Photoredox/Nickel Dual Catalysis

A phosphorylation of alkenyl and aryl C-O bonds at room temperature via photoredox/nickel dual catalysis is reported. By starting from easily available and inexpensive sulfonates, a variety of important alkenyl phosphonates and aryl phosphine oxides are generated in moderate to excellent yields. This method features mild reaction conditions, high selectivity, good functional group tolerance, wide substrate scope, and easy scalability.
