This review gives a survey of the synthetically useful addition reactions of phosphorus(III) esters (phosphites, phosphonites, phosphinites, amidophosphites, etc. and their thio-analogues) with systems containing carbon-carbon, carbon-oxygen, carbon-nitrogen, nitrogen-nitrogen, nitrogen-oxygen, and nitrogen-sulphur multiple bonds. Products of these reactions are the corresponding derivatives of phosphorus(V) esters (phosphates, phosphonates, phosphinates, etc. and their thio-analogues). Emphasis has been placed on results published within the last ten years. 1. Introduction 2. Addition Reactions to C=C-Systems 2.1.
