Summary: | This work summarizes the results of a new approach to the synthesis of previously undescribed, hard-to-obtain five-membered cyclic organophosphorus compounds: 3-alkyl(aryl)-substituted phospholanes, α,ω-bisphospholanes, polycyclic phospholanes, 4,5-dialkyl(diaryl)-disubstituted 2,3-dihydrophospholes, as well as their oxides and sulfides. Alumoles and alumolanes synthesized by the reaction of cycloalumination of available unsaturated compounds (terminal alkenes, α,ω-alkadienes, norbornene derivatives, symmetrical internal alkynes) with Et<sub>3</sub>Al in the presence of a Cp<sub>2</sub>ZrCl<sub>2</sub> catalyst were used as precursors. The substitution of aluminum atoms in cyclic organoaluminum compounds for phosphorus atoms takes place using alkyl(aryl)phosphorus (III) dichlorides. The developed one-pot method gives high yields of products under mild conditions.
