Acyl(chloro)phosphines RC(O)P(Cl)(<i>t</i>-Bu) have been prepared by formal insertion of <i>tert</i>-butyl phosphinidene (<i>t</i>-Bu-P) from <i>t</i>-BuP<b>A</b> (<b>A</b> = C<sub>14</sub>H<sub>10</sub> or anthracene) into the C-Cl bond of acyl chlorides. We show that the under-explored acyl(chloro)phosphine functional group provides an efficient method to prepare bis(acyl)phosphines, which are important precursors to compounds used industrially as radical polymerization initiators.
