Abstract

Bisphosphonates derived from natural terpenes were synthesized by phosphonylation of corresponding aldehydes. The general strategy of introduction of the phosphonate groups into the polyprenol molecule involves successive treatment of a hydroxyl compound by Swern reagent to oxidize the C-OH group into C=O and a (EtO)3P/[PyH]+ClO−4 mixture to phosphylate the resulting carbonyl compound.
