The major electron impact induced fragmentation of 2‐hydroxyphosphonic esters, XCH 2 CH(OH)CH 2 PO 3 Et 2 (and their O‐derivatives) involves the C(2)–C(3) α‐cleavage, yielding the XCH 2 · radical and the oxocarbonium ion, + HO = CHCH 2 PO 3 Et 2 . No evidence for a competitive C(1)–C(2) α‐cleavage was obtained, and the results suggest a stabilizing effect of the phosphonyl group on the α‐oxocarbonium system.
