The coupling reaction of alkylphosphonic acids and alcohols on the surface of p-toluenesulfonic acid–Celite under mild and solvent-free conditions gave the corresponding phosphonates in excellent yields. This method provides a useful rapid synthesis of phosphonates for use in the unambiguous identification of chemical warfare agents.

This article describes a one pot, solvent free, microwave assisted synthesis of O,O-dialkyl dialkylpyrophosphonates (DADAPP) from O-alkyl alkylphosphonic chlorides 2a–j with 4-dimethylaminopyridine (DMAP) in the presence of water under microwave irradiation. The reaction takes place by the phosphonium salts, which are converted into the DADAPPs 4a–j. These DADAPPs are important markers of chemical warfare agents sarin, soman, and VX and their analogues. The method has several advantages over the conventional methods such as operational simplicity, high yield, and reduced reaction time.
