Triphenyl phosphite, with methyl

The aHphatic iodine derivatives are usually prepared by reaction of an alcohol with hydroiodic acid or phosphoms trHodide by reaction of iodine, an alcohol, and red phosphoms addition of iodine monochloride, monobromide, or iodine to an olefin replacement reaction by heating the chlorine or bromine compound with an alkaH iodide ia a suitable solvent and the reaction of triphenyl phosphite with methyl iodide and an alcohol. The aromatic iodine derivatives are prepared by reacting iodine and the aromatic system with oxidising agents such as nitric acid, filming sulfuric acid, or mercuric oxide.

Treatment of the conanine (372) with bromine-aqueous sodium carbonate yields192 (100%) the conenium salt (375) which is readily converted into (376) (80%). Compound (376) is also formed starting from (373). When C-20 is substituted by two methyl groups as in (374) the product is (377). The conanine (373) is photo-oxygenated,193 in the presence of methylene blue, to (376). The nitrone (378) is quantitatively deoxygenated by triphenyl phosphite with trimethyl phosphite the reaction is more complex.194... 

The phosphorus activation of alcohols to substitution with inversion of configuration. The reactions are based on the high heat of formation of the P-O bond and the tendency for phosphorus to form multiple bonds with oxygen. For example, treatment of an alcohol with triphenyl phosphite and methyl iodide leads to the corresponding iodo compound (Scheme 2.17). 

Michaelis and Kaehne isolated a product with saltlike properties from the reaction of triphenyl phosphite and methyl iodide. This observation has been confirmed by Arbuzov and Sazonova (30) and by Landauer and Rydon (206,284), who used this salt as a reagent for the preparation, in excellent yields, of alkyl halides, including neopentyl iodide, from the corresponding alcohols. The course of this reaction... 

A related procedure involves heating the alcohol with an adduct formed from triphenyl phosphite and methyl iodide.In this instance a reactive alkoxyphosphonium intermediate is formed by displacement of a phenoxy group at phosphorus.

Method E - catalytic procedure (typical procedure). Benzaldehyde (106 mg, 1.0 mmol), methyl bromoacetate (165 mg, 1.1 mmol), triphenyl phosphite (356 mg, 1.2 mmol), dibutyl telluride (48 mg, 0,2 mmol), KjCOj (179 mg, 1.3 mmol) and THF (4 mL) are mixed and stirred at 50°C for 13 h (monitored by TLC). The reaction mixture is filtered rapidly through a small amount of SiOj with EtOAc as the eluent to remove inorganic salts and dibutyltellurium oxide. Preparative TLC with EtOAc/petroleum ether at 60-90°C (1 9) as the eluent yields 3-phenylpropenoate (160 mg (98%)). 

A. Neopentyl iodide. A 500-ml. two-necked round-bottomed flask is fitted with a reflux condenser to which is attached a calcium chloride drying tube. One hundred thirty-six grams (115 ml., 0.44 mole) of triphenyl phosphite, 35.2 g. (0.4 mole) of neopentyl alcohol, and 85 g. (37 ml., 0.60 mole) of methyl iodide (Note 1) are added to the flask, and a thermometer is inserted that is of sufficient length to extend into the liquid contents of the flask. The mixture is heated under gentle reflux...

The first of these methods involves the reaction of triphenyl phosphite methiodide with methyl 3-0-methyl-2-0-p-tolylsulfonyl-a-D-glucopyrano-side, hydrogenation of the resulting 4,6-diiodo derivative, and hydrolysis,186 as adapted to monosaccharides by Kochetkov and coworkers.1,0 In another approach,281 ethyl 2,3-anhydro-4,6-dideoxy-D-nbo-hexopyranoside, obtained from desosamine, was treated with sodium methoxide, to give a mixture of 2- and 3-methyl ethers. After fractionation and separation of side products,288 the 3-methyl ether was hydrolyzed, to give crystalline chalcose. McNally and Overend800 have described another synthesis, starting from methyl 4-deoxy-D-xj/Zo-hexoside.107...
