Abstract:New α-Cyanophosphonates, which are useful reagents for Horner-Wittig reaction, were synthesized in a solvent-free condition, using choline chloride-zinc chloride deep eutectic solvent (DES) as a catalyst. This work is only the second report on the synthesis of these compounds. In the previous report, diethyltrimethylsilylphosphite was used as a reagent and TiCl4 as a catalyst while in this study, both employed reagent and catalyst (triphenyl phosphine and choline chloride-zinc chloride DES) are cheaper, more… Show more
