DBN hexafluorophosphate salts as convenient sulfonylating and phosphonylating agents†
Abstract
Air-stable N-sulfonyl and N-phosphonyl DBN hexafluorophosphate salts have been synthesised under mild conditions as sulfonylating and phosphonylating agents. These salts are highly efficient in the sulfonylation and phosphonylation of a range of N- and O-nucleophiles to generate sulfonamides, sulfonate esters, phosphoramidates and phosphonate esters in good yields.
