Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

To a solution of (3-methoxy-4-nitrophenyl)phosphonic dichloride (1.39 g, 5.15 mmol) in 15 mL THF at −78° C. under nitrogen was slowly added vinylmagnesium bromide (10.3 mL, 1.0 M in THF). After the addition was complete, the reaction stirred at −78° C. for an additional hour. The cold reaction mixture was quenched by the addition of saturated NH4Cl (20 mL) and the mixture was extracted with CH2Cl2. The combined organic layers were washed with 1 M NaOH, brine, and dried over MgSO4. The organic extracts were filtered and concentrated to provide Diethenyl(3-methoxy-4-nitrophenyl)phosphane oxide (0.982 g, 75%).
