Abstract

4-Pyridinecarboxaldehyde was reacted with diphenyl phosphite in THF at 0 OC for 1 h to produce diphenyl l-hydroxy-1-(4-pyridyl) methanephosphonate (1) in 40% yield. Hydroxy compound 1 was converted into diphenyl l-chloro-l-(4-pyridyl) methanephosphonate (2) by treatment with POC13/PhN (Et) 2 at 90 OC for 1 h. At the next step, 2 and the 4-substituted benzaldehyde in THF were treated with 2 equiv of t-BuOK at room temperature for 6 h to ...
