P. Stipa et al., BETA-PHOSPHORYLATED 5-MEMBERED RING NITROXIDES - SYNTHESIS AND ESR STUDY OF 2-PHOSPHONYL-4-(HYDROXYMETHYL)PYRROLIDINE AMINOXYL RADICALS, Journal of organic chemistry, 58(16), 1993, pp. 4465-4468
Intramolecular aminomercuration of the alkenyl alpha-amino phosphonate
6 followed by sodium borohydride reduction leads to the diethyl xymet
hyl)-2,5,5-trimethylpyrrolidinyl)-phosphonate 7. Oxidation of the phos
phonates 7 and 8 with 3-chloroperbenzoic acid led to the stable 2-phos
phonylpyrrolidinyl aminoxyl radicals 9 and 10 bearing a 4-(hydroxymeth
yl)substituent.
