Copper-Catalyzed Oxidative Alkylation (Methylation) of Phosphonamides and Phosphinamides Using Dicumyl Peroxide

Copper-Catalyzed Oxidative Alkylation (Methylation) of Phosphonamides and Phosphinamides Using Dicumyl Peroxide

An effective and practical CuI-catalyzed methodology toward N-alkyl or N-methyl phosphonamides and phosphinamides was herein demonstrated. The transformation took place readily under the oxidative conditions, and plenty of N-alkylated (methylated) amides (30 examples) were successfully furnished in high efficiency (up to 92% yields). Dicumyl peroxide was considered to act either as the oxidant for the alkylation reaction or as methyl donator for the methylation protocol.
