description

Abstract Tetramethylguanidine-catalyzed addition of dialkyl phosphites to α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds, alkenenitriles, aldehydes and ketones constitutes a practical route to a variety of phosphonate synthons. The very mild conditions employed, together with the short reaction times, make the procedure highly versatile and tolerant to a range of functionalities. The proposed methodology is also convenient for the preparation of α-aminophosphonates.
