Aza-Michael reaction as an efficient method for the synthesis of first representatives of β-azahetaryl-β-diphenylphosphorylalkanones

Аннотация

Aza-Michael reaction of (E)-4-(diphenylphosphoryl)but-3-en-2-one (1) with a number of mono-and bicyclic nitrogen heterocycles proceeds regioselectively in the absence of catalysts with the formation of corresponding β-azahetaryl β-diphenylphosphoryl ketones; in the case of imidazole, the presence of chiral organic catalysts allows one to increase the yields of the adducts and to obtain them in enantiomerically enriched form.
