Aryl halides alcohol protection

Further, a large number of examples with simple alkyl substituents [168, 171, 176-184], cyclic alkanes [185], aryl substituents [177, 186-192], olefmic substituents [78, 177, 193-196], deuterated compounds [172], thioether groups [171], ester groups [197], orthoesters [198, 199], acetals [168, 182, 200-204], silyl-protected alcohols [198, 205-211], aldehydes [212], different heterocycles [213-217], alkyl halides [218, 219] and aryl halides [192, 220-223] have been reported. A representative example is the reaction of 92, possessing a free hydroxyl group, an acetal and a propargylic ether, to 93 [224] (Scheme 1.40).

This is an extremely efficient reagent and is rapid in its action. Phosphoric oxide is difficult to handle, channels badly, is expensive and tends to form a protective syrupy coating on its surface. A preliminary drying with anhydrous magnesium sulphate, etc., should precede its use. Phosphoric oxide is only employed when extreme desiccation is required. It may be used for hydrocarbons, ethers, alkyl and aryl halides and nitriles, but not for alcohols, acids, amines and ketones. 

Triphenylsilylamine has been used as a protected ammonia equivalent for displacement of aryl halides to prepare anilines. For a more thorough discussion of silylat-ing reagents the section on alcohol protection should be consulted since many of the reagents described there will also silylate amines. 

The C-4 acids (183 and 184) have also been subjected to borane reduction conditions to afford alcohol 195 in 23-50% yield or 64% yield as the C-8 epimeric mixture (195 and 196, Scheme 29) [34, 49, 64]. The C-8 alcohol epimers 195 and 196 have been treated separately as a common intermediate for a number of C-4 derivatives including esters, ethers, and amines [34, 49, 64], Alcohols 195 and 196 was subjected to DCC, DMAP, and desired acid chloride or carboxylic acid in CH2CI2 affording ester analogs in 50-92% yield [64], Esters prepared include alkyl, aryl, and fluorenylmethyloxycarbonyl (Fmoc) protected amino acid derivatives (197 and 198) [64]. Ethers were prepared with various alkyl halides and Ag20 in CH3CN at 40 °C. Alkyl, allyl, and benzyl ethers were prepared in 45-80% yield (199 and 200) [34,64]. Alcohols 195 and 196 were then activated to the triflates and displaced by a variety of amines by treatment with trifluoromethanesulfonic anhydride and desired amine in 22% - quantitative yield over two steps (201 and 202)... 

Further esterification of monobenzyl benzylphosphonate may be carried through the Mitsunobu procedure, the best yields being achieved using the potassium salt of the substrate. Monoesters of iV-protected (1-aminoalkyl)phosphonic acids are further esterified by alcohols in the presence of BOP-type reagents [(l-aminoalkyl)alkylj- and [(l-aminoalkyl)aryl]-phosphinic acids, again as their potassium salts, have been converted into esters by reactive alkyl halides in the presence of 18-crown-6 ether (see also reference The...
