Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

Into a 100-mL round-bottom flask purged and maintained with an inert atmosphere of nitrogen, was placed a solution of sulfuryl dichloride (1.1 g, 8.15 mmol, 1.47 equiv) in dichloromethane (10 mL). This was followed by the addition of a solution of diethyl 2-aminoethylphosphonate (intermediate 1.9) (1.0 g, 5.52 mmol, 1.00 equiv) and triethylamine (800 mg, 7.92 mmol, 1.43 equiv) in dichloromethane (20 mL) dropwise with stirring at 0° C. The resulting solution was stirred for 2 h at 0° C. The reaction was then quenched by the addition of ice water. The organic layer was washed with saturated sodium chloride (20 mL), dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and concentrated under vacuum. This resulted in 0.5 g (crude) of the title compound as a colorless oil.
