Hydrochloric Acid → HCID 178527051, compound

Temperature

5 °C

Diethylchlorophosphite (15.6 g,0.1 mol) in 100 mL of dry diethyl ether was cooled to 5° C. under an atmosphere of nitrogen. Phenethylmagnesium chloride (100 mL, 0.1 mol, 1.0 M in THF) was added dropwise over 2 hours while maintaining a temperature between 0-10° C. A thick white slurry formed and stirred at room temperature overnight. The mixture was filtered under a nitrogen atmosphere and the filtrate evaporated under reduced pressure to give a clear and colorless liquid. The liquid was stirred as 15 mL of water was added followed by 0.5 mL of concentrated hydrochloric acid. An exothermic reaction was observed and stirring continued for 15 minutes followed by extraction with ethyl acetate. The organics were combined, washed with brine, dried (MgSO4) and evaporated. The clear liquid was brought up in sodium hydroxide (40 mL, 2.0 M NaOH), stirred for 1 hour and washed once with diethyl ether. The aqueous layer was acidified to pH 1.0 with concentrated hydrochloric acid and extracted with ethyl acetate. The organics were combined, dried (MgSo4) and evaporated to give phenethylphosphinic acid (1,R=CH2CH2Ph, R1=H)(9.8 g, 58%) as a clear light yellow oil.
