Triethylamine → (+/-)-Phenyl Nonyl Phosphoryl Chloride

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of phenylphosphonic dichloride (3.0 g, 14.2 mmol) and triethylamine (2.4 mL, 17.1 mmol) in toluene (20 mL) at 0° C. is added dropwise a solution of 1-nonanol (2.05 g, 14.2 mmol) in toluene (5 mL). The mixture is allowed to warm slowly to room temperature and stirred for 2 hours. The mixture is filtered, and the filtrate is concentrated to afford 4.5 g of the title compound as a light yellow liquid; 1H NMR (200 MHz, CDCl3)δ7.40-7.15 (m, 5 H), 4.40-4.25 (m, 2 H), 1.90-1.65 (m, 2 H), 1.45-1.20 (m, 12 H), 0.89 (t, J=7 Hz, 3 H).
