Synthesis of α-aminophosphorous derivatives using a deep eutectic solvent (DES) in a dual role

Deep eutectic solvent (DES) as an efficient, cost-effective, reusable, and environmentally benign medium for the synthesis of α-aminophosphine oxide/phosphonates from the hydrophosphorylation of aldehydes, amines, and diphenylphosphine oxides/diethylphosphite is reported.
