Nucleophilic Aromatic Substitution Reactions of 1-Methoxy-2-(diphenylphosphinyl)naphthalene withC-,N-, andO-Nucleophiles: Facile Synthesis of Diphenyl(1-substituted-2-naphthyl)phosphines

Abstract
A novel nucleophilic aromatic substitution reaction is described in which the methoxy group of 1-methoxy-2-(diphenylphosphinyl)-naphthalene is readily replaced with Grignard reagents, alkoxides, and amides. Reduction of the resulting phosphine oxides provides a convenient route to diphenyl(1-substituted-2-naphthyl)phosphines.
