Pp. Onysko et al., 1,3-PHOSPHOROTROPIC REARRANGEMENT OF PYRIDYL PHOSPHATES TO HYDROXYPYRIDYL PHOSPHONATES, Heteroatom chemistry, 4(4), 1993, pp. 361-364
The lithium diisopropylamide (LDA) induced regioselective 1,3-rearrang
ement of 3- and 2- pyridyl phosphates into the corresponding 3-hydroxy
-4-pyridyl- and 2-hydroxy-3-pyridylphosphonates has been observed and
investigated. The rearrangement is proposed as a useful method for a d
irected introduction of a phosphoryl group into a hydroxypyridine nucl
eus.
