Asymmetric alkylation of dimethoxyphosphoryl-N-[1-(S)-alpha-methylbenzyl]acetamide enolates. Synthesis of both stereoisomers from the same source of chirality by changing the equivalents of LDA

An Overview of Stereoselective Synthesis of α-Aminophosphonic Acids and Derivatives

An overview of all methodologies published during the last few years focused to the stereoselective (diastereoselective or enantioselective) synthesis of α-aminophosphonic acids and derivatives is reported. The procedures have been classified according a retrosynthetic strategy and taking into account the formation of each one of the bonds connected to the chiral centre.
