Abstract
An unusual greater reactivity of phosphonous propionic acids was found in comparison with phosphonous propionic esters in carbamate version of Kabachnik–Fields reaction. Compounds of tricoordinated phosphorus generated in situ during the amidoalkylation of hydrophosphorylic compounds in acetyl chloride/acetic anhydride mixture were found by 31P NMR analysis. A hypothesis is proposed about the generation of spirophosphoranes in situ to explain the mechanism for the formation of the phosphorus–carbon bond in the reaction under study.
