Synthesis of thiazole aminophosphine oxides, aminophosphonic and aminophosphinic acids and Cu(II) binding abilities of thiazole aminophosphonic acids

Abstract

A series of new aminophosphine oxides, aminophosphonic and aminophosphinic acids derived from thiazole was synthesized by addition of phosphine oxides or silylated phosphorus esters to the corresponding thiazole aldimines. The thiazole aldimines were obtained from 2-thiazole aldehyde and primary amines by a standard procedure. The corresponding phosphine oxides were obtained by alkylation of diethyl phosphite or ethyl phenylphosphinate with the appropriate Grignard reagents. The silylated phosphorus esters were prepared from trimethyl phosphite and from methyl- or phenylphosphinic ethyl ester by treatment with bromotrimethylsilane. The coordination ability towards Cu(II) ions are described for two obtained aminophosphonate ligands.
