A modular rearrangement approach toward medicinally relevant phosphinic structures

Org Lett. 2009 Oct 15;11(20):4696-9. doi: 10.1021/ol902004p.

Abstract

An unprecedented coupling of a P-C and a C-C bond-forming event in a practical operation was developed to access medicinally relevant phosphinic structures. The strategy relies on an Ireland-Claisen rearrangement triggered by the phospha-Michael addition of silyl phosphonites to allyl acrylates. This protocol was extended to a more versatile three-component variant that utilizes phosphinic acids, acryloyl chlorides, and allylic alcohols as starting materials.
