Treatment of ortho ‐(diphenylphosphanyl)phenyl nitriles with an excess of lithium at room temperature in THF gives 1,2‐azaphosphindolides, which can react with RX (benzyl bromide, 1‐bromopropane, and 1,2‐dibromoethane) to form 2 H ‐1,2‐azaphosphindoles and give the aromatic 1 H ‐1,2‐azaphosphindoles upon protonation.
