A convenient and efficient procedure for the synthesis of α‐amino phosphonates by a one‐pot, three‐component condensation of aldehydes, amine, and diethyl phosphite in the presence of xanthan sulfuric acid as a bio‐supported catalyst under solvent‐free conditions has been developed. A wide range of α‐amino phosphonates have been obtained in high to excellent yields. Furthermore, the catalyst can be recovered simply and reused several times in subsequent reactions.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
