Uncatalysed Preparation of α-Amino Phosphonates under Solvent Free Conditions

A multifaceted approach towards understanding the peculiar behavior of (α)-hydroxyiminophosphonates

A unique multifaceted approach involving the interplay of NMR, XRD, LC, DFT and MS/IM-MS techniques toward the understanding of the peculiar isomer-selective reduction of (α)-hydroxyiminophosphonates into (α)-hydroxyaminophosphonate derivatives.

Synthesis of α-Aminophosphonates and Related Derivatives; the Last Decade of the Kabachnik-Fields Reaction

The Kabachnik-Fields reaction, comprising the condensation of an amine, oxo compound and a P-reagent (generally a >P(O)H species or trialkyl phosphite), still attracts interest due to the challenging synthetic procedures and the potential biological activity of the resulting α-aminophosphonic derivatives. Following the success of the first part (Molecules 2012, 17, 12821), here we summarize the synthetic developments in this field accumulated in the last decade. The procedures compiled include catalytic accomplishments as well as catalyst-free and/or solvent-free "greener" protocols. The products embrace α-aminophosphonates, α-aminophosphinates, and α-aminophosphine oxides along with different bis derivatives from the double phospha-Mannich approach. The newer developments of the aza-Pudovik reactions are also included.

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.
