Please note the following is a contested mechanism, and does not appear to apply to most Atherton-Todd reactions; it is notable that dimethylphosphite reacts uniquely under these conditions, and the mechanism is less likely to be valid with other alkyl substitutions or with more sterically hindered amine bases. |

A possible reaction mechanism for the Atherton-Todd reaction is presented here for the example of dimethylphosphite, just like in the overview reaction:{{citation|surname1=Zerong Wang|title=Comprehensive organic name reactions and reagents Volume 1|publisher=John Wiley|location=Hoboken (N.J.)|pages=114–118|isbn=978-0-470-28662-3|date=2009|language=German |
