CsF-Promoted Iodocyclization of Allenylphosphonates: A Convenient Approach to Highly Functionalized Oxaphospholenes

Abstract

A convenient CsF-promoted iodocyclization reaction of trisubstituted allenylphosphonates with iodine to construct highly functionalized oxaphospholene derivatives has been developed. A series of readily available starting materials including ferrocenylallenes, aromatic and alkyl substituted allenes can undergo the process successfully.

Key words

ferrocene - oxaphospholenes - allenylphosphonates - iodocyclization - CsF
