“…These reactions usually proceed with excellent stereoselectivity, with mainly retention of phosphorus configuration. 4,11,134 Retention of stereochemistry is also observed in the acid cleavage of phosphetanic amides into phosphetanic chlorides. 11,135 The stereochemical outcome can be explained as follows.…”

Monomeric metaphosphorimidates, 0=P(0R)=NR', have been postulated as reactive intermediates in phosphorus chemistry. Stereochemical evidence for such intermediates has now been obtained by photolysis, in methanol, of cis-and rra/u-l-azido-2,2,3,4,4-pemamethylphosphetane 1-oxide to yield the cis-and trans-2-methoxy-3,3,4,5,5-pentamethyl-l,2-azaphospholidene 2-oxides and eight other products. The starting materials and products have been separated and purified by high-pressure liquid chromatography, and their stereochemistry was established through their nmr spectra. The formation of the principal products has been rationalized on the assumption that photolysis of the azides leads to ring expansion with insertion of a nitrogen atom into the ring to yield a monomeric metaphosphonimidate, or with insertion of an oxygen atom into the ring to yield a new type of chemical intermediate. Consistent with this explanation, the ratio of cis-to fra/w-methyl phostamates, obtained as products of photolysis, is essentially independent of whether cis or trans azide is used as starting material. The chemistry and stereochemistry of monomeric metaphosphorimidates are discussed on the basis of these findings. The other products have also been accounted for, in most cases by assuming that a nitrene, or incipient nitrene, is formed in the photolysis.
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.
