DIETHYL ISOCYANOMETHYLPHOSPHONATE

Chemical Properties

Uses

• Copper-catalyzed cycloaddition reactions
• Preparation of orally bioavailable diamide prodrugs that lower glucose in diabetic animals through inhibition of fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase
• Synthesis of sterol analogs as antifungal agents against plant pathogens
• Asymmetric synthesis of steroidal 2,5-diketopiperazines prepared via isocyanide chemistry based on stereoselective Ugi four component condensation and subsequent cyclocondensation reactions
• The Passerini reaction
