Abstract

This work reports a simple and efficient method for the direct phosphorylation of enamide under metal-free conditions. The P-centered radicals, derived from secondary phosphine oxides, are generated under mild reaction conditions in the presence of diphenyliodonium salt and Et3N and are introduced onto a range of enamides in good isolated yields. The method features broad substrate scope, good functional group tolerance, and efficient scale-up.
