Abstract N-Heterocycles including indolecarbaldehyde, substituted benzimidazoles, and methylimidazole could be efficiently phosphorylated by diethyl chlorophosphate at room temperature in different solvents using alkali carbonate or triethylamine as the base. However, the phosphorylation of N-heterocycles with a lower reactivity at the NH function, such as carbazole and phenothiazine, could not be conducted to complete conversion ...
