The synthesis of diethyl 2-(aryl) vinylphosphonate through direct Heck coupling reaction of the diethyl vinylphosphonate with aryl or heteroaryl halides catalysed by solid materials ([Pd (NH3) 4]/NaY, Pd/C, PdO/SiO2) is reported. After optimising the reaction conditions (1.3 mol%[Pd (NH3) 4]/NaY, DMF, K2CO3, 110–140° C), various aryl and heteroaryl halides were engaged in this reaction leading in all cases good to high yields. Interestingly, when ...
