Microwave-assisted ionic liquid-catalyzed selective monoesterification of alkylphosphonic acids—an experimental and a theoretical study

It is well-known that the P-acids including phosphonic acids resist undergoing direct es-terification. However, it was found that a series of alkylphoshonic acids could be involved in mo-noesterification with C2–C4 alcohols under microwave (MW) irradiation in the presence of [bmim][BF4] as an additive. The selectivity amounted to 80–98%, while the isolated yields fell in the range of 61–79%. The method developed is a green method for P-acid esterification. DFT calculations at the M062X/6–311+G (d,p) level of theory (performed considering the solvent effect of the corresponding alcohol) explored the three-step mechanism, and justified a higher enthalpy of activation (160.6–194.1 kJ·mol–1) that may be overcome only by MW irradiation. The major role of the [bmim][BF4] additive is to increase the absorption of MW energy. The specific chemical role of the [BF4] anion of the ionic liquid in an alternative mechanism was also raised by the computations.

Fragmentation-Related Phosphonylation of Nucleophiles Utilizing P-Alkyl 2,3-oxaphosphabicyclo[2.2.2]octene 3-oxide Precursors

New P-alkyl 2,3-oxaphosphabicyclo-[2.2.2]octene 3-oxides were synthesized by the Bayer-Villiger oxidation of the corresponding 7-phosphanorbornene 7-oxides and were used as precursors for reactive alkylmetaphosphonates useful in the phosphonylation of alcohols. This is the first case that the reactivity of the two regioisomers formed by O-insertion was differentiated and that the fragmentation-related phosphonylation leading to phosphonic acid-esters was achieved under microwave-assisted conditions.
