Abstract

A deprotonative cross-coupling process (DCCP) enables a new synthetic route to access diarylmethyl phosphonates via introduction of aromatic groups on benzylic phosphonates. A catalytic system based on Pd(OAc)2/CataCXium A allows a reaction between benzyl diisopropyl phosphonate derivatives and aryl bromides in very good isolated yields.
