Participants

Reaction Steps

With stirring, 7.6 g (0.045 mole) of diethyl aminomethylphosphonate are added dropwise to a solution of 15 g (0.045 mole) of (5-trifluoromethyl-2-pyridyloxy)-3,4-dinitrobenzene in 50 ml of toluene, and the mixture is heated for 12 hours to reflux. The mixture is then concentrated and the residue is chromatographed over silica gel with a 1:4 mixture of hexane/ethyl acetate, affording 9.8 g (48.7% of theory) of the title compound with a melting point of 74°-76° C.
