Participants

Reaction Steps

0.2 g of triethylamine is first added to a solution of 12.5 g (0.075 mol) of methyl 2-(dimethylphosphinoyl)-2-hydroxy-acetate in 50 ml of absolute dioxane, and 6.6 g (0.075 mol) of methoxymethyl isocyanate in 20 ml of absolute dioxane are then added dropwise. The mixture is stirred at 25° for 24 hours, the solvent is stripped off and the residue is recrystallized from diisopropyl ether/ethyl acetate. 19.6 g (98%) of the desired product of melting point 101° are obtained.
