Phosphorus, alkylation arylation

These a-acylaminoketones also provided a convenient synthesis of thiazoles on treatment with phosphorus pentasulfide (Gabriel s method). Although yields range from 45 to 80%, substituents are usually restricted to alkyl, aryl and alkoxy derivatives. Thus, reaction of the a-acylaminoketone (4) with P4S1Q gave the thiazole (5), and thiazole (7) itself was prepared in this manner in 62% yield from formylaminoacetal (6) (14CB3163). The corresponding 5-ethoxy compound was obtained from the a-formamidoester and phosphorus pentasulfide in an inert solvent. 

The reaction given here has been described before as a general reaction,2 and there can be a wide variety of alkyl, aryl, and halo substituents on the diene and phosphorus. Dibromophosphines are appreciably more reactive than dichlorophosphincs. If a free-radical catalyst is used instead of an inhibitor, the copolymers can be made in good yield.3 The 1,4-addition of dichloro-phosphines to 1,3-dienes is of theoretical interest because of its analogy to the well-known 1,4-addition of sulfur dioxide to 1,3-dienes. 

Organophosphate Ester Hydraulic Fluids. Organophosphate esters are made by condensing an alcohol (aryl or alkyl) with phosphorus oxychloride in the presence of a metal catalyst (Muir 1984) to produce trialkyl, tri(alkyl/aryl), or triaryl phosphates. For the aryl phosphates, phenol or mixtures of alkylated phenols (e.g., isobutylated phenol, a mixture of several /-butylphenols) are used as the starting alcohols to produce potentially very complex mixtures of organophosphate esters. Some phosphate esters (e.g., tricresyl and trixylyl phosphates) are made from phenolic mixtures such as cresylic acid, which is a complex mixture of many phenolic compounds. The composition of these phenols varies with the source of the cresylic acid, as does the resultant phosphate ester. The phosphate esters manufactured from alkylated phenylated phenols are expected to have less batch-to-batch variations than the cresylic acid derived phosphate esters. The differences in physical properties between different manufacturers of the same phosphate ester are expected to be larger than batch-to-batch variations within one manufacturer. 

All of the soluble polymers (1 and 3-6) give high resolution NMR spectra (1H, 13C, and 31P) that are completely consistent with their proposed structures. As observed for other types of poly(phosphazenes), the 31P chemical shifts of these alkyl/aryl substituted polymers are consistently ca. 15-30 ppm upfield from those of the analogous cyclic trimers and tetramers. Some important structural information is provided by 13C NMR spectroscopy, particularly for the phenyl/alkyl derivatives 3 and 4. These polymers are rare examples of phos-phazenes that contain two different substituents at each phosphorus atom in the chain. Thus, they have the possibility of being stereoregular. The fact that the structures are completely atactic, however, is confirmed by the observation of three doublets in the P-Me region of the 13C NMR spectrum (ca. 22 ppm) in a 1 2 1 intensity ratio.

In the framework of this concept a series of new mixed P/N ligands was prepared, employing the phosphorus-analogous Mannich reaction (Scheme 9). This transformation permits the substitution of primary or secondary amines by methylenephos-phine residues -CH2PRR (R, R = alkyl, aryl) through reaction with a secondary phosphine and formaldehyde (46). Based on the... 

Amphiphilic tertiary phosphines have their phosphorus donor atom located somewhere in the hydrophobic part of the molecule and should have at least one long alkyl or alkyl-aryl chain carrying a polar head group (Scheme 4. 10). Some of them, such as the sulfonated derivatives, are quite well soluble in water, others, such as Ph2P(CH) COOH (n = 3, 5, 7, 9, 11) are practically insoluble, however, can be easily solubilized with common surfactants (SDS, CTAB etc.). 

Similar upfield shifts for C-3/5 are observed with an axial R = alkyl, aryl, O or S. An axial methyl at the P atom in the 1-oxide, however, is shielded compared with an equatorial one. 31P resonances of phosphorus oxides and sulfides are strongly deshielded. Some examples show the differences (5 values in p.p.m.) Me3P, -62 Me4P+ I-, 25 Me3P=0, 36 Me3P=S, 59 MesP, unknown. Other physical methods, such asP=0 or P=S stretching frequencies and dipole moments, are sometimes very useful in conformational and structural determinations.

Acylamino ketones also provide a convenient synthesis of thiazoles on treatment with phosphorus pentasulfide (Gabriels method). Substituents are usually restricted to alkyl, aryl, and alkoxy derivatives. Thus, the -acylamino ketone 234 with P4S10 gave the thiazole 240. Lawessons reagent (LR) can be effectively used as the source of sulfur in these cyclizations (e.g., Scheme 116) <1996JME957, 2006TL2361, CHEC-III(4.06.9.1.3)682>. 

Amino- and 2,5-diamino-1,3,4-oxadiazoles are formed by heating 1-acylsemicarbazides (3, R = alkyl, aryl)40,41 and substituted hydra-zodicarboxamides (3, R = NHR )42 in an excess of phosphorus oxychloride. The yields often exceed 80%, particularly with diaryl substituents in some cases SOCl2 may be used for the ring closure (3, R = aralkyl, R =H).

In contrast to trivalent phosphorus compounds with activated bonds, where insertion occurs, phosphanes bearing only alkyl, aryl, alkoxy, aryloxy, secondary amino, thio, and halogeno ligands are oxidized by HFA. Earlier work was reviewed by Ramirez (276) in 1970 and Hellwinkel 139) in 1972. The following scheme [Eq. (43)] shows all reactions occurring in the phosphane/HFA system. 

In general, phosphines are tricoordinated phosphorus compounds that bear only hydrogen or carbon (alkyl, aryl, alkenyl) substituents at phosphorus. Subcategorization of phosphines is based on the degree of carbon substitution about phosphorus. Primary phosphines [RPH2] are those...
