Question re: Arbuzov Reaction
I think I saw a reference where the Arbusov reaction was used to make a phosphonate from an alkyl halide (no surprises there). The unusual feature
was that the reaction went to completion overnight at RT in DMF.
I can't seem to find the reference now. Did I imagine this?
Thanks in advance for your comments.

Arbusov Reaction
I think I got it. Maybe they used a salt of dialkylphosphite instead of a trialkyl phosphite. Then the reaction would be accelerated by the
"naked anion" effect in DMF.
I still need a reference, though. Does this scheme make sense?

Correct, put Arbuzov Reaction in google and press enter. There are some directions to litterature at first hit.
