Synthesis of phosphatidic acids via cobalt(salen) catalyzed epoxide ring-opening with dibenzyl phosphate†
Abstract
With a CoIII(salen)OTs catalyst, dibenzyl phosphate ring-opens a variety of terminal epoxides with excellent regio-selectively and yields up to 85%. The reaction is used in a highly efficient synthesis of enantiopure mixed-diacyl phosphatidic acids, including a photoswitchable phosphatidic acid mimic.
