✦ Synopsis
A simple and efficient method for asymmetric synthesis of 2H-azirine-2-phosphonates 6 is described. The key step is a base-mediated Neber reaction of p-toluenesulfonyloximes 4 derived from phosphonates. Triethylamine 5, alkaloids 7 and solid-phase bound achiral 8 or chiral amines 9 are used. Reduction of 2H-azirines 6 with sodium borohydride in ethanol gives cis-aziridine-phosphonates 10. Ring opening of aziridines 10 and 11 leads to the formation of enantiomerically enriched b-12 and 14 and a-aminophosphonates 13 and 15.
