A copper(II)-catalyzed, high-efficiency and atom-economical synthesis of valuable organophosphorus compounds via tandem cyclization of o-alkynylphenyl isothiocyanates with phosphites is described. This protocol, having a good functional-group compatibility, provides a simple and direct pathway to organophosphorus heterocycles in good yields under mild conditions. The method could be efficiently scaled up to gram scale, thus providing a potential application of this cascade cyclization strategy in synthesis.
