Horner-Wadsworth-Emmons reaction, which stirs a mixture of aldehyde, phosphonate reagent 1, and a base without solvent. The reaction of aromatic aldehydes and triethyl 2-phosphonopropionate 1a using LiOH·H2O gave 95-99% E-selectivity in 83-97% yield. The reaction of 1a with aliphatic aldehydes gave 92-94% E-selectivity except for α-branched aldehydes, and the selectivity was improved to 97-98% using ethyl 2-(diis
( E )-α-甲基-α,β-不饱和酯通过Horner-Wadsworth-Emmons 反应制备,该反应在无溶剂的情况下搅拌醛、膦酸酯试剂1和碱的混合物。芳香醛和 2-膦酰基丙酸三乙酯1a使用 LiOH·H 2 O 反应得到 95-99% E-选择性,产率为 83-97%。1a与脂肪醛的反应产生92-94% E-选择性,除了 α-支链醛,使用 2-(二异丙基膦酰基)丙酸乙酯1b将选择性提高到 97-98% 。使用 2-膦酰基丙酸三异丙酯1c改善了与 α-支链脂肪醛的反应和Ba(OH) 2 ·8H 2 O,得到98->99%的E-选择性和高产率。在THF中使用Ba(OH) 2 ·8H 2 O的HWE反应也以高产率高度选择性地得到( E )-α-甲基-α,β-不饱和酯。
