Abstract

2, 4-Dinitrophenol was employed with benzyloxy-bis-(diisopropylamino) phosphine to synthesise the cyclic phosphate derivatives of a series of alkane diols (HO–(CH2) n–OH, n= 2–6) in good isolated yields. Tetrazole and DNP were compared by 31P NMR spectroscopy for their ability to catalyse the cyclisation at the P (III) stage. Investigation of the phosphate triester stability under various oxidation and chromatographic conditions resulted in the ...
