Structure and reactivity of tautomeric forms of zwitterionic species from the reaction of phosphorus(iii) compounds with electron deficient alkenes and alkynes†
Abstract
Synthesis and reactivity of tautomeric forms of the N-t-Bu)CH
CH(CO2Me) (3), (t-BuNH)P(N-t-Bu)2P(
N-t-Bu)CH2CH2(CN) (4) and Ph2P(N-t-Bu){C(Ph)
CH(CO2Et)} (5) are isolated. A novel heterocycle [(t-BuNH)P(N-t-Bu)2P[
C(CO2Me)–CH(OMe)–C(O)–N(t-Bu)–] (6) obtained by utilizing 1 and MeO2CC
CCO2Me is described. The structural proof for the second stage intermediate after the addition of
