Diastereoselective Synthesis of New Dialkylphosphorylhydrazones

Abstract

A series of 22 dialkylphosphorylydrazones (dialkyl ester, N′-[(1E)-(R₁ phenyl)methylene]-phosphorohydrazidic acid), 20 of them new, along with three new N,N′-bis (diisobutylphosphorylthioamide)diamines (bis-[diisobutyl ester), N-thioxomethylene]-, diamine)phosphora-midic acid, were prepared and characterized by IR, ¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR, ³¹P NMR, and mass spectrometry. The analysis of ¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR, ³¹P NMR, and NOE spectra confirmed the observation of the single diastereoisomer E in the synthesis of dialkylphosphorylydrazones. The results of a molecular modeling study performed in order to investigate the mechanism of the synthesis of dialkylphosphorylydrazones are in agreement with the experimental results, i.e., the favored formation of diastereoisomer E over Z.
