Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of 11.6 g of isobutyl 2-(4-fluorophenyl)-3-nitro-propyl(methyl)phosphinate in 100 ml of ethanol is added to 114 g of a 8% solution of ammonia in ethanol. To this are added 9 ml of Raney Nickel slurry and the resulting mixture is hydrogenated at 1 bar until hydrogen uptake ceases. The mixture is then filtered and the filtrate is concentrated under reduced pressure to give isobutyl 3-amino-2-(4-fluorophenyl)-propyl-(methyl)phosphinate as a viscous oil, 31P N.M.R. spectrum: δ=+54.0 and +53.4 ppm (CDCl3).
