The [4+1] cyclocondensation reaction of 2-alkyl- and 2-aminocycloiminium salts with suitable phosphorus(III) reagents provides an easy access to a large variety of anellated azaphospholes with a bridgehead nitrogen atom. This [4+1] approach is complemented by two related synthetic routes which, in place of the 2-substituted cycloiminium salts, use 2-unsubstituted 1-alkylcycloiminium salts or neutral 2-amino-substituted cyclic imines, and which thus follow the [3+2] pattern. In these cases, the ring is formed by cycloaddition with phosphaalkynes or by cyclocondensation with chloromethyldichlorophosphane, respectively.
