Ethyl 3-amino-3-(4-chlorophenyl)propyl(diethoxymethyl)phosphinate → HCID 19379612, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of 10.5 g of ethyl 3-amino-3-(4-chlorophenyl)propyl-(diethoxymethyl)phosphinate in 100 ml of 36% aqueous hydrochloric acid is heated to reflux for a period of 2 hours. The reaction mixture is then allowed to cool to room temperature, concentrated under reduced pressure, and co-evaporated twice with 25 ml of water under reduced pressure. The crude product is then dissolved in 20 ml of water, washed twice with 20 ml of diethyl ether and the aqueous layer is then separated and evaporated under reduced pressure. The crude product is dissolved in 50 ml of ethanol and 5 ml of propylene oxide is added dropwise. The precipitated solid is collected by filtration and dried to give 3-amino-3-(4-chlorophenyl)propylphosphonous acid, m.p. 284°-286° C., 31P=+27.2 ppm (D2O).
