Abstract

An Ugi three-component reaction using preformed α-phosphorated N-tosyl ketimines with different isocyanides in the presence of a carboxylic acid affords tetrasubstituted α-aminophosphonates. Due to the high steric hindrance, the expected acylated amines undergo a spontaneous elimination of the acyl group. The reaction is applicable to α-aryl ketimines bearing a number of substituents and several isocyanides. In addition, the densely substituted α-aminophosphonate substrates showed in vitro cytotoxicity, inhibiting the growth of carcinoma human tumor cell line A549 (carcinomic human alveolar basal epithelial cell).
