Abstract

Abstract Diastereoselective synthesis of diethyl Z-1-alkenylphosphonates from easily available diethyl thiocyanatomethylphosphonate and aromatic aldehydes has been developed. Olefination of the aldehydes occurs under mild conditions and affords the title compounds with moderate yields. A plausible mechanism of the above-mentioned reaction is also discussed.© 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Heteroatom Chem 18: 732–739, 2007; ...
