An efficient synthesis of dialkyl 2-(diphenoxyphosphoryl)-3-(alkylthio)succinates from alkylthiols, triphenyl phosphite and dialkyl acetylenedicarboxylates

An efficient synthesis of dialkyl 2-(diphenoxyphosphoryl)-3-(alkylthio)succinates, as a mixture of two diastereomers, in 78–90% yields, is described via reaction between alkylthiols, dialkyl acetylenedicarboxylates, and triphenyl phosphite. The structures of products were deduced from their high-field ¹H, ¹³C, and ³¹P NMR spectra, and IR spectral data. Since these hosphonate esters possess two stereogenic centers, two diastereomers with gauche HCCH arrangements are possible. Observation of ³ J _HH = 3.5-4.6 Hz for the vicinal methine protons confirmed the dominance of the gauche arrangement. A mechanism is proposed for the formation of products.

Abstract

The reaction of ethyl 9,10-dihydro-9,10-dioxoanthracen-1-yl-carbamoyl-formate with dialkyl acetylenedicarboxylates in the presence of triphenylphosphine leads to dialkyl 4-ethoxy-2,5-dihydro-1-(9,10-dihydro-9,10-dioxoanthracen-1-yl)-5-oxo-1H-pyrrole-2,3-dicarboxylates in fairly good yields. A dynamic NMR effect is observed as a result of restricted rotation around the single bond linking the anthraquinone moiety and the heterocyclic ring system, which is attributed to the interaction between the pyrrole residue and the peri C═O group.
