Research Progress in the Preparation of Aryl and Alkyl Mixed Phosphates

Aryl and alkyl mixed phosphates are very important phosphorus containing organic compounds, which are widely used in many fields, such as biology, medicine, pesticide, polymer, and material science.The unique physical, chemical, and biological properties of phosphorus-based motifs provide more possibilities for their structural modification, derivatization, and potential application.Therefore, the research on the preparation of these compounds has important theoretical and practical significance.In this paper, the research progress of the synthesis methodologies of aryl and alkyl mixed phosphate in the past few decades is reviewed.The application examples are listed.The experimental methods and development process of the conversion of various kinds of phosphorus containing reagents to target compounds are summarized.The characteristics, mechanism, and application of the reaction are discussed selectively as well.We hope that this review can provide a reference for the development of new preparation protocols of mixed phosphate, and provide some useful references for scholars, graduate students, and others in the related fields.
