Phosphonyl transfer by the elimination-addition mechanism: accelerated formation of an alkylidineoxophosphorane (phosphene) intermediate when a P-O single bond is replaced by P-S

The phosphonochloridate R2CHP(O)(YEt)Cl (R2CH = fluoren-9-yl, Y = O or S) reacts with (Pr2NH)-N-i largely or exclusively by an elimination-addition mechanism; the three-coordinate phosphene intermediate R2C=P(O)YEt is formed ca. 10(3) times more easily when Y = S than when Y = O.
