A microwave-promoted easy, efficient and green synthesis of a-hyroxyphosphonates and
α-aminophosphonates is reported from two-component reaction of an aldehyde and diethylphosphite and three component reactions of an aldehyde, diethylphosphite and aniline, respectively. The desired products were isolated in excellent yields and high purity under solvent and catalyst free conditions.
