Abstract

3-Azabicyclo[3.1.0]hex-2-en-1-yl phosphonates were prepared in a five-step reaction route from β-ketophosphonates. The key steps in this sequence are an atom-transfer radical cyclization and an unforeseen lithium-halogen exchange with n-BuLi. The cyclization reaction proceeds with excellent diastereoselectivity. The resulting cyclic imines were reduced, and 3-azabicyclo[3.1.0]hexan-1-yl phosphonates were obtained.
