Abstract
Phenyl phosphonous dihalide is oxidized according to the following reaction: ##STR1## wherein X is Cl or Br. The reaction is conducted at a temperature from about 0.degree. C. to about 200.degree. C. Charcoal is added to the reaction mixture when impure phenyl phosphonous dihalide is used as a starting material. The product has high purity and is stable at high temperatures. It can be used as an intermediate to prepare flame retardants, insecticides, pesticides and plasticisers.
