Organic compounds that contain phosphorus are called organophosphorus compounds. Organophosphorus compounds have various applications. They can be used as gasoline additives, lubricants, flame-retardants, plasticizers, hydraulic fluids and pharmaceuticals. They have widespread use not only as ligands in coordination chemistry and catalysis, but also in materials science, medicinal chemistry and agrochemicals. Organophosphorus chemistry is a field of chemistry under which the reactivity and characteristics of organophosphorus compounds are studied. Some of the major categories of organophosphorus compounds studied within this field are phosphate esters and amides, phosphonium salts and phosphoranes, and phosphines. This book explores all the important aspects of organophosphorus chemistry in the present day scenario. The various studies that are constantly contributing towards advancing technologies and evolution of this area of chemistry are examined in detail. The book will serve as a valuable source of reference for graduate and postgraduate students.
