title: Electrochemical partial fluorination of organic compounds. 80. Synthesis of cyclic alpha-arylthio-alpha-monofluorophosphonate esters.
abstract: [Reaction: see text]. Seven-membered cyclic alpha-monofluorophosphonate esters such as 2-allyloxy-3-fluoro-3-phenylthio-4,7-dihydro-[1, 2]-oxaphosphinine-2-oxide were successfully synthesized in moderate total yield as 41% from open-chain allyl phosphonates having an alpha-arylthio group as an electroauxiliary using an alternative sequence of anodic fluorination and ring-closing olefin metathesis (RCM). On the other hand, in an attempt to synthesize an eight-membered analogue, a different type of seven-membered fluorinated cyclic product was formed predominantly by the RCM reaction between the allyloxy groups.
