The reaction with chloral of 2-[1-(3-chlorophenyl)-2,2,2-trifluoroethoxy]-5,6-benzo-1,3,2-dioxaphosphorinan-4-one containing a chiral fluorinated exocyclic substituent on phosphorus leads to formation of 2-[1-(3-chlorophenyl)-2,2,2-trifluoroethoxy]-3-(trichloromethyl)-6,7-benzo-1,4,2l 5 -dioxaphosphepin-5-one 2-oxide with a high regio-and stereoselectivity. The molecular and supramolecular structure of the isolated diastereomer was established by means of X-ray diffraction.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
