Abstract
[GRAPHICS] The first dearomatizing anionic reaction of a phenyl ring promoted by an N- benzyl-n-methylphosphinamide group is described, The intermediate lithium s pecies can be trapped with different electrophiles, affording tetrahydroben zo[c]-1-aza-2 lambda (6)-phospholes with excellent diastereoselectivity. Th e new process is a simple and very efficient entry to the stereoselective s ynthesis of functionalized gamma-(N-methylamino)phosphinic acids and esters .
