Electrophilic activation of alkynylphosphine oxides and phosphonates provides a novel approach to the synthesis of P-substituted and P-centered heterocycles. Iodocyclization affords a heteroaryl iodide that can, among other things, be used in reiterative alkyne coupling and iodocyclization to give cyclic phosphonates and other cyclization reactions to give π-rich P-heterocycles.
