Fe3O4@MgO nanoparticles as an efficient recyclable catalyst for the synthesis of phosphoroamidates via the Atherton–Todd reaction

Modified nano magnetic Fe2O3-MgO as a high active multifunctional heterogeneous catalyst for environmentally beneficial carbon-carbon synthesis

In this study, novel nanomagnetic catalysts, namely Fe2O3-MgO@choline formate (Ch. F.) and Fe2O3-MgO@choline cyanide (Ch. CN), were synthesized through immobilizing choline-based ion liquids to magnetic support via a simple and cost-effective methodology. FT-IR, TGA, FE-SEM, VSM, EDS, BET, and XRD techniques were employed to assess and characterize these organic-inorganic compounds. Following the successful preparation of nanoparticles, the catalysts were utilized in Knoevenagel and benzoin condensations. Fe2O3-MgO@Ch.F. exhibited exceptional activity in Knoevenagel condensation under solvent-free conditions at room temperature, achieving high yields (91-98%) in a short timeframe. Similarly, Fe2O3-MgO@Ch.CN demonstrated remarkable activity in benzoin condensation under environmentally friendly solvent conditions, yielding higher isolated yields (76-88%). Furthermore, these magnetically recyclable multifunctional catalysts displayed the ability to be reused up to five times without a significant loss in efficiency. Additionally, the heterogeneity of this nanocatalyst was investigated using the hot filtration technique. The findings indicated that the reaction primarily occurs via a heterogeneous pathway.

Copper-Catalyzed Phosphorylation of N,N-Disubstituted Hydrazines: Synthesis of Multisubstituted Phosphorylhydrazides as Potential Anticancer Agents

An efficient copper-catalyzed aerobic oxidative cross-dehydrogenative coupling reaction for the synthesis of multisubstituted phosphorylhydrazides from N,N-disubstituted hydrazines and hydrogen phosphoryl compounds is accomplished. The reaction proceeds under mild conditions without the addition of any external oxidants and bases. This work reported here represents a direct P(═O)-N-N bond formation with the advantages of being operationally simple, good functional group tolerance, and high atom and step economy. Furthermore, the selected compounds exhibit potential inhibitory activity against tumor cells, which can be used in the field of screening of anticancer agents as new chemical entities.

Recent advances in the synthesis and applications of phosphoramides

Phosphoramide, as an important framework of many biologically active molecules, has attracted widespread attention in recent decades. It is not only widely used in pharmaceuticals because of its excellent biological activities, but it also shows good performance in organic dyes, flame retardants and extractors. Thus, it is of great significance to develop effective and convenient methods for the synthesis of phosphoramides. In this review, the recent advancements made in the synthesis routes and applications of phosphoramides are discussed. The synthetic strategies of phosphoramides can be separated into five categories: phosphorus halides as the substrate, phosphates as the substrate, phosphorus hydrogen as the substrate, azides as the substrate and other methods. The latest examples of these methods are provided and some representative mechanisms are also described.

Opening up the Toolbox: Synthesis and Mechanisms of Phosphoramidates

This review covers the main synthetic routes to and the corresponding mechanisms of phosphoramidate formation. The synthetic routes can be separated into six categories: salt elimination, oxidative cross-coupling, azide, reduction, hydrophosphinylation, and phosphoramidate-aldehyde-dienophile (PAD). Examples of some important compounds synthesized through these routes are provided. As an important class of organophosphorus compounds, the applications of phosphoramidate compounds, are also briefly introduced.
