Abstract

This is the first report on applying the Mitsunobu protocol for the synthesis of various α-acyloxyphosphonates using 4,4′-azopyridine and PPh3 with diverse aromatic and aliphatic carboxylic acids. Under these conditions, diethyl azodicarboxylate (DEAD) as the traditional reagent for Mitsunobu reaction is not efficient. The insoluble pyridine hydrazine byproduct can be simply isolated and recycled to its azopyridine by an oxidation reaction and reused again. [Supplemental materials are available for this article.
