Catalytic Lewis acid phosphorylation with pyrophosphates
摘要:
We report a method for the Lewis acid catalyzed phosphorylation of alcohols with pyrophosphates. Ti((OBu)-Bu-t)(4) was found to be the most effective catalyst in the phosphorylation of both primary and secondary alcohols with tetrabenzylpyrophosphate, providing conversions between 54% and >98% and isolated yields between 50% and 97%. Other pyrophosphates with orthogonal protecting groups were synthesized and screened to validate the generality of the approach. This study will describe how benzyl, methyl, ethyl, allyl, and o-nitrobenzyl pyrophosphates are all effective phosphorylating agents under Lewis acid catalysis. (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd.

We report a method for the Lewis acid catalyzed phosphorylation of dials with pyrophosphates. Titanium alkoxides were found to be effective catalysts in the selective mono-phosphorylation for a range of dials. Dials of varying chain lengths and substituents were screened, to study the factors that influence mono-versus di-phosphorylation. It was discovered that 2-alkyl-2-amino-1,3-propanediols can be selectively mono-phosphoiylated in up to 97% isolated yield. This structural core is mono-phosphorylated in numerous immunomodulating compounds including the FDA-approved drug, FTY720.[GRAPHICS](C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
