The present invention relates primarily to a process for producing particular phosphinates (phosphonous acid monoesters) and use thereof for producing biologically active substances which may be used in the pharmaceutical or agrochemical sector, preferably for producing phosphorus-containing amino acids.

Cell binding agent-drug conjugates comprising phosphinate-based charged linkers and methods of using such linkers and conjugates are provided.

The present invention generally relates to processes for the enzymatic production of a phosphinothricin product or precursor thereof from a nitrile-containing substrate.

A simple preparation method for a dialkoxypropyl methylphosphonate, wherein a methyl halogenated phosphonate monoester is reacted with a 3,3-dialkoxypropyl magnesium or zinc halide to obtain a 3,3-dialkoxypropyl methylphosphonate. The starting materials are readily available, the operations are simple, the conditions are mild, the synthesis conversion rate is high, and the method is suitable for industrial production.

The present invention primarily relates to a process for producing certain phosphorus-containing cyanohydrin esters of formula (I) and the use thereof for producing glufosinate/glufosinate salts. The present invention further relates to a process for producing glufosinate/glufosinate salts.

Cell binding agent-drug conjugates comprising phosphinate-based charged linkers and methods of using such linkers and conjugates are provided.

Cell binding agent-drug conjugates comprising phosphinate-based charged linkers and methods of using such linkers and conjugates are provided.

Cell binding agent-drug conjugates comprising phosphinate-based charged linkers and methods of using such linkers and conjugates are provided.

The present invention provides dialkyl phosphorus-containing compounds, namely reactive mono-hydroxyl-functional dialkyl phosphinates, serving as highly efficient reactive flame retardants in flexible polyurethane foams. The invention further provides fire-retarded polyurethane compositions comprising said the reaction product of the mono-hydroxyl-functional dialkyl phosphinates with polyol and isocyanate foam forming components.

The present invention relates to an improved method for preparing acrolein cyanohydrins from hydrocyanic acid and the corresponding acroleins. The method is characterized in that the acrolein cyanohydrins obtained have a very low hydrocyanic acid content or are free of hydrocyanic acid and are therefore particularly well suited as intermediates for the synthesis of glufosinates.
