Phosphorus compounds reactions with amides

The chlorophosphine boranes 97 are efficient starting reagents for the synthesis of various classes of P-chiral phosphorus compounds. Reactions of chlorophosphine boranes 97 with nucleophiles, such as carbanions, phenoxides, phenylthiolates, or amides, leads to the formation of corresponding organophos-phorus compounds 100-103 in yields of 53-99% and with up to 99% ee. This method was also used for the preparation of various classes of symmetric and asymmetric P-chiral ligands useful for asymmetric reactions, catalyzed by complexes of transition metals (Scheme 31) [52, 60, 61]. 

In a later paper Speziale and Smith 109) investigated the reaction of trivalent phosphorus compounds with N-monosubstituted a-trichloro-acetamides and a-trichloroacetamide. The products were imidoyl chlorides (129) and dichloroacetonitrile (130), respectively. The intermediacy of enamines (131) was assumed. For the monosubstituted amides the enamine... 

In this paper Speziale and Smith 109) described experiments which led them to modify the mechanism proposed earlier 108) for the reaction of trivalent phosphorus compounds with haloamides. The first step is considered to be attack of the trivalent phosphorus compound on a chlorine atom of the halo amide (132) to produce a resonance-stabilized enolate ion (133). This is reasonable since under conditions where the trichloroamide... 

Dihydrothieno[2,3-6][l,5]benzothiazepines (42) were synthesized from 2-(2-thienylthio)aniline (40). Compound 40 was acylated by treatment with acetic anhydride or benzoyl chloride to give N-acyl derivatives (41), which afforded compounds 42 by cyclization with phosphorus oxychloride and subsequent reduction with sodium borohydride or Zn/HCl. N-Dimethylaminopropyl derivatives 43 were prepared by reaction with di-methylaminopropyl chloride in the presence of sodium amide (Scheme 13) (67CZP124935 68CCC1846). 

This method may be used for the preparation of other perfluorinated alkanesulphonyl-, arenesulphonyl-, and alkanecarbonyl-amides. Several reactions of the pseudohalide were studied, but perhaps the most interesting are the reaction under pressure at 160 °C with phosphorus pentasulphide to give the previously unknown compound CF3SOzNCS, and the reaction with phosphorus pentachloride under the same conditions to give CF3S02NCC12. 

The reaction of N-arylsulfonylsuinmides with a range of trivalent phosphorus compounds gave near quantitative yields of the phosphinimides and the sulfide. I Addition of protic solvents led to reduction products, which contain, besides the original sulfides, an alkyl-exchanged sulfide in which the alkyl group derived from the alcohol. 126.127 other derivatives, (acid anhydride, amide, ester or thioester) were formed in the presence of carboxylic acid derivatives. 128,129 xhese reactions were favoured by the dipolar nature of the intermediately formed sulfurane. 127... 

Phosphorus-containing enamines have been prepared by phosphorylation of N-vinyl substituted tertiary amides, lactams and cyclic imides with phosphorus pentachloride ". Addition of amines to diphosphoryl alkynes has been described. Addition of RR NH [R = H, Ri = Me, cyclohexyl, PhCH2 RR = (CHj) to (Et0)2P(0)C=CP(0K0Et2)2 in CH2CI2 at 25 °C gave 93-100% of (Et0)2P(0)C(NRRi)=CHP(0)(0Et2)2 . Speziale and coworkers have studied the reactions of phosphorus compounds with trichloroacetamides. 

In these reactions, hydrolysis of diphenyl and triaryl phosphites to monoaryl phosphites and phenol was coupled by dehydration between carboxylic acids and amines or alcohols to the corresponding amides and esters. Therefore, the reaction can be generalized as a hydrolysis-dehydration reaction (Scheme 2). The concept of the hydrolysis-dehydration reaction using phosphites has been drown to be applicable also to reactions with other phosphorus compounds such as phosphinites, phos-phonites and phosphorates s Aryl esters of these phosphorus compounds are effective as condensing agents in the production of carboxylic amides and esters (from carboxylic acids and amines or alcohols, respectively) whereas alkyl esters are ineffective (Eqs. (1-3)) ... 

Since the reactions with phosphorus compounds give relatively high yields of carboxylic amides and esters and ureas, they have been extended to the direct polycondensations of dicarboxylic acids with diamines and bisphenols, of free a-amino acids or dipeptides, and of carbon dioxide and carbon disulfide with diamines under mild conditions to give polyamides, polyesters, polyureas, and polythioureas.
