title: Synthesis of α-Arylphosphonates Using Copper-Catalyzed α-Arylation and Deacylative α-Arylation of β-Ketophosphonates.
abstract: Efficient methods for the direct arylation and deacylative arylation of β-ketophosphonates with iodoarenes in presence of a copper(I) or a copper(II) salt as the catalysts were developed. The corresponding α-arylphosphonates were obtained in high yields. A tentative mechanism for the deacylative arylation reaction was proposed on the basis of the experimental data.
