Abstract
The invention relates to a method for producing mono-carboxyfunctionalized dialkylphosphinic acids and esters and salts thereof, characterized in that a) a phosphinic acid source (I) is reacted with olefins (IV) to yield an alkylphosphonic acid, salt or ester (II) thereof in the presence of a catalyst A, b) the thus obtained alkyl phosphonic acid, salt, salt or ester (II) thereof is reacted with compounds of formula (V) and/or (VI') to yield mono-functionalized dialkylphosphinic acid derivatives (VI) and/or (VI′) in the presence of a catalyst B, and c) the thus obtained mono-functionalized dialkylphosphinic acid derivatives (VI) and/or (VI′) are reacted to yield a mono-carboxyfunctionalized dialkylphosphinic acid derivative (III) in the presence of a catalyst C, wherein R, R, R, R, R, R, Rare the same or different and stand independently of each other, among other things, for HC-Calkyl, C-Caryl, C-Caralkyl, C-Calkylaryl, and X and Y are the same or different and stand independently of each other for H, C-Calkyl, C-Caryl, C-Caralkyl, C-Calkylaryl, Mg, Ca, Al, Sb, Sn, Ge, Ti, Fe, Zr, Zn, Ce, Bi, Sr, Mn, Cu, Ni, Li, Na, K and/or a protonized nitrogen base, and the catalysts A and C are formed by transition metals and/or transition metal compounds and/or catalyst systems composed of a transition metal and/or a transition metal compound and at least one ligand, and catalyst B is formed by compounds forming peroxides and/or peroxo compounds and/or azo compounds and/or alkali metals and/or alkaline earth metals, alkali hydrides, alkaline earth hydrides and/or alkali alcoholates and alkaline earth alcoholates.
