• phosphorus atoms was synthesized by the microwave-assisted and catalyst-free Kabachnik–Fields reaction of (aminomethyl)phosphine oxides with paraformaldehyde and diphenylphosphine oxide. The three-component condensation of N,N-bis(phosphinoylmethyl)amine, paraformaldehyde and a secondary phosphine oxide

• affording N,N,N-tris(phosphinoylmethyl)amine derivatives was also elaborated. This method is a novel approach for the synthesis of the target products.

• elaborated by us for the synthesis of several (aminomethyl)phosphine oxides [10][11]. As regards α-aminophosphine oxides with different P-substituents, only two different types were reported. Olszewski and co-workers synthesized chiral thiazole-substituted aminophosphine oxides 2 through the Pudovik reaction
