Electrochemically‐Enabled Construction of N‐Acyl Iminophosphoranes

N‐acyl iminophosphoranes have shown significant potentials in various areas. This paper presents two electrochemical strategies for the successful construction of a series of substituted N‐acyl iminophosphoranes using electrochemical activation of hydroxylamines or dioxazolones to generate unprotected amide radicals and radical anions. The simple undivided cell with inexpensive electrode setups (graphite felts, carbon rods, and copper sheets) provides excellent substrates tolerance under mild conditions. This simple electrochemical construction of N‐acyl iminophosphoranes also has good scalability, practicability and extensibility. Furthermore, synthetic transformations of the N‐acyl iminophosphorane products have demonstrated the application potentials of the P=N bond.
