A process for the stereoselective preparation of a P-chiral four-co-ordinated phosphorus compound, the process comprising reacting a first reactant selected from the group consisting of a chiral alcohol, chiral amine or chiral thiol, with a second reactant comprising a P-chiral three-co-ordinated phosphorus compound, in the presence of an electrophile.
