Ee. Nifantyev et Mk. Gratchev, INTRAMOLECULAR CATALYSIS AND STEREOSELECTIVE PHOSPHORYLATION OF HYDROXYL-CONTAINING NUCLEOPHILES WITH AMINES OF TRIVALENT PHOSPHORUS, Tetrahedron letters, 36(10), 1995, pp. 1727-1730
The possibility of intramolecular catalysis in the alcoholysis of P(II
I)-amines was probed using the phosphonites 1 and 2. Sharply increasin
g rates of phosphorylation were observed in the acid catalized reactio
ns, although kinetic studies showed no dependence on acid concentratio
n in the rate of 1. The stereoselectivity of this process was also inv
estigated using the chiral system 9.
