A one-pot procedure for the phosphorylation of alcohols provides the corresponding phosphate monoesters in improved yields. The protocol features the use of tetrabutylammonium hydrogen phosphate and trichloroacetonitrile, followed by purification of the crude product by flash chromatography on silica gel. The final step, cation exchange chromatography, affords the organophosphates as ammonium salts that are usually required for biochemical applications. The mechanism appears to be phosphate rather than alcohol activation by trichloroacetonitrile.
