Abstract

A convenient method for the synthesis of amide esters and mixed esters of phosphonic acids is described. A phosphorus monoester at the phosphinate oxidation level (4) is converted to the trimethylsilyl phosphonite tautomer, 5, and oxidized with CC14 to generate the phosphonochloridate 6. This oxidative activation is carried out in the presence of the amine or alcohol nucleophile so that stoichiometric formation of the chloridate is avoided and side reactions are minimized.
