HYDROBORATION OF UNSATURATED AMINES X. HYDROBORATION-HALOGENATION OF ALLYL PHOSPHORAMIDATES ROUTE TO γ-HALOGENOPROPYL PHOSPHORAMIDATES AND γ-HALOGENATED AMINES

Abstract

This paper describes the synthesis of γ-halogenopropyl phosphoramidates I by hydroboration-halogenation reaction of N-phosphorylated allylamines II (phosphoramidates and phosphoramides). Only the use of allyl phosphoramidates leads to a good regioselectivity of the addition of boron atom on the terminal carbon atom of the allyl structure (compounds III).

The absence of N→B complex formation permits a good reactivity of the trialkylboranes III and IV. The breaking of the P[sbnd]N bond, in acidic medium of the compounds I gives corresponding γ-halogenated amines V.
