Abstrakt: This article explores a new, convenient route to beta-phosphorus nitroxides. Specifically, the reaction sequence involves the novel 1,3-addition of trimethylsilyl phosphites (e.g. diethyl) or trimethylsilyl phosphines (e.g. diphenyl) to aldo-nitrones [e.g. alpha-phenyl-N-tert-butylnitrone (PBN) or 5,5-dimethyl-l-pyrroline-N-oxide (DMPO)] or keto-nitrones [e.g. 2-ethyl-5,5-dimethyl-1 pyrroline-N-oxide (2-Et-DMPO) or 2-phenyl-5,5-dimethyl-l-pyrroline-N-oxide (2-Ph-DMPO)] to form alpha-phosphityl- or alpha-phosphinyl-O-silylhydroxylamines. Acidic hydrolysis provides the corresponding hydroxylamines that are easily oxidized to the title beta-phosphorus-nitroxides. ESR spectroscopic analysis revealed some very large beta-phosphorus hyperfine splittings (i.e. in excess of 5 mT). For this reason and their remarkable stability (persistence) some of these nitroxides show promise as integral components in new, improved weak-field dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP) magnetometers.
