The α-amidoalkylating properties of 1-(N-acylamino)alkyltriarylphosphonium salts with weakened Cα-P+ bond strength are discussed and examined. It is demonstrated that such type of phosphonium salts reacts smoothly with a diverse array of carbon- and heteroatom-based nucleophiles, including 1-morpholinocyclohexene, 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds, benzotriazole sodium salt, p-toluenesulfinate sodium salt, benzylamine, triarylphosphines, and other P-nucleophiles. Reactions are conducted at room temperature, in a short time (5–15 min) and mostly without catalysts. Simple work-up procedures result in good or very good yields of products. The structures of known compounds were established by spectroscopic methods and all new compounds have been fully characterized using 1H-, 13C-, 31P-NMR, IR spectroscopy, and high-resolution mass spectrometry. Mechanistic aspects of described transformations are also performed and discussed. It was demonstrated that unique properties make 1-(N-acylamino)alkyl-triarylphosphonium salts with weakened Cα-P+ bond strength interesting building blocks with great potential, especially in α-amidoalkylation reactions.
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.
